Franz Wagner honored as rookie of the month

Basketball shooting star Franz Wagner has been recognized for his strong performance in the North American professional league NBA.

The Orlando Magic 20-year-old was named December Rookie of the Month in the Eastern Conference by the league on Tuesday.

In the past four weeks, Wagner had hit an average of 19.5 points more than any other newcomer.

With 38 points, the Berliner had set the best value of his young career last Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. No rookie has scored more points this season.

Wagner has been used in each of the 38 games so far in the bottom group from Florida. For 19 games he has scored double digits in every encounter.

The small forward, drawn by Orlando in eighth place in the last draft, is only the eighth player in franchise history to receive the award.

In addition to Wagner, the exceptional talent Dennis Scott and Shaqille O’Neal (four times) had already received awards at Magic.
