SAN ANTONIO (AP) — After
just one season, Tim Duncan is
drawing comparisons to the
likes of David Robinson and
Kevin McHale.
Duncan, a major force in leading
the San Antonio Spurs to a record
turnaround this season, was over
whelmingly voted the NBA’s
Rookie of the Year on Monday.
“It’s a goal I had coming into
this year,” he said. “I wanted to
play well this year and win this
award.”
The No. 1 draft pick from Wake
Forest received 113 of 116 votes
(97 percent) from a panel of NBA
writers and broadcasters. New
Jersey’s Keith Van Horn got the
other three votes.
Duncan’s margin of victory as
the largest since Shaquille
O’Neal received 98 percent of the
vote in 1992-93.
“He’s big time, just like David
(Robinson) was and just like Shaq
was,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich
said. “His demeanor and
approach to this whole business is
uncommon and extraordinary.”
With Duncan in the lineup and
Robinson returning from foot and
back injuries, the Spurs went 56-
26 in the regular season, an
improvement of 36 victories from
their 1996-97 mark.
San Antonio set another
league record by holding oppo
nents to 41.1 percent shooting.

season, the Spurs qualified this
year with the fifth-best record in
the Western Conference.
“It’s been great playing with
every one of my teammates
because it’s a veteran crew,”
said the 7-footer from Wake
Forest, who was the top pick in
last June’s NBA draft. “I came in
here with little pressure on me
because we had such a core of
great players.”
With slick post moves, deft
ball-handling and smothering
defense, Duncan became the first
rookie to play in the NBA All-Star
Game since Grant Hill in 1995.
He averaged 21.1 points, 11.9
rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.5 blocks
per game and shot .549 from the
field. He was the 19th rookie in
NBA history to average at least 20
points and 10 rebounds per game.
Duncan led all rookies in scor
ing, rebounding, blocks and field
goal percentage and ranked sev
enth in assists.
He ranked third in rebounding,
fourth in field goal percentage,
sixth in blocks and 13th in scoring
among all players.
Duncan joined Ralph
Sampson (1983-84) and
Robinson (1989-90) as the only
players to win Rookie of the
Month honors every month since
the NBA started giving out the
award in the 1981-82 season.
“It’s been a great year,”
Duncan said. “It’s been a lot of
fun.”

Already projected to be a
high seed before winning the
Big 12 tournament, the Aggies
will learn just how high on
May 5 when the NCAA
announces the seeds.
Stay Tuned
After finishing second in the
Big 12 and winning the confer
ence tournament, the Aggies
have already made a remarkable
turnaround from last year’s dis
appointing campaign.
Although some teams might
become complacent in this situa
tion, A&M Coach Tim Cass has
other plans for his. “We’re not
finished yet,” he said.

Marichal sustains injuries
in accident in Dominican
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican
Republic (AP) — Hall of Fame
pitcher Juan Marichal sustained
serious head injuries when his car
ran off the highway and crashed
before dawn Monday.
Marichal, 60, the Dominican
sports minister, was a passenger in
the sport utility vehicle and briefly
lost consciousness.
Police said weather was not a
factor and the accident was being
investigated.
Marichal was listed in serious
but stable condition with injuries to
the head, neck, spine and left leg at
Santo Domingo’s Armed Forces
Hospital, said a hospital director,
Pedro Delgado Valdez.
He was later transferred to a
medical center in the capital to
undergo head X-rays'.
“We will keep him under con
stant observation, but his situation
isn’t critical,” Delgado Valdez said.
The accident happened at 5
a.m. in Villa Altagracia, about 30
miles north of Santo Domingo.
Police said Marichal was returning
to Santo Domingo from the
provincial capital of Santiago.
His driver, Bernardino Lopez
Ferreras, and a security guard,
Eduardo Rodriguez, also were seri
ously injured and were hospitalized
in stable condition.
Marichal had a 243-142 record
while pitching for the San Francisco
Giants, Boston Red Sox and Los
Angeles Dodgers. He won 20 or
more games on seven occasions.
He pitched a no-hitter in 1963.
