Head of the class

So, it would seem as good a time as any (with the league's general managers sitting on their hands over the trade deadline) to take a look at this year's rookie class. To make things easier, and make up for the disparate roles each of these rookies play, we've taken to normalizing most statistics to a per-40-minute mark, though only when noted.

(All statistics and records through Feb. 22 -- the Day the Trade Deadline Died.)
