Minnesota Timberwolves Andrew Wiggins was named the NBA's Rookie of the Year on Thursday.

Wiggins averaged 16.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game and hitting the court in all 82 NBA games of his first season.

The Toronto native says speaking to his father helped him face the league's high level of competition.

"You know, after every game I talked to my dad and he told me what I need to do and what I should do better. He never sugar-coats nothing with me. He's not just going to tell me everything is sweet. He's going to be honest with me. What I need to do and that's where I got my grind from really. I'm not really scared of anybody no matter who I go up against I'm going to try and face them like I face anybody."

Chicago's Nikola Mirotic and Philly's Nerlens Noel were second and third, respectively.

And Oklahoma City has just named their new coach--Billy Donovan, the most successful coach in Florida Gators history.

ESPN is reporting that Donovan signed a five-year deal with OKC, with a team option on the fifth year, to replace former head coach Scott Brooks, who was with the team for the past seven seasons before being fired in April.
