PHILADELPHIA -- Michael Carter-Williams has something to show for being a bright spot in a dismal season for the Philadelphia 76ers. Allen Hurns Jersey . Carter-Williams won the NBAs Rookie of the Year Award on Monday after becoming only the third player since 1950-51 to lead all rookies in scoring (16.7), rebounding (6.3) and assists (6.2). Oscar Robertson (1960-61) and Alvan Adams (1975-76) were the others. Despite the performance of their dynamic guard, the Sixers were awful this season. They were 19-73 and tied an NBA record by losing 26 straight games. "Id definitely trade this award to be in the playoffs in a second," Carter-Williams said. "Coaches tell me to watch the playoffs to look at how different the game is and I do see it. Its a whole different season. This game is about winning. I hope I set a positive example about leading your team in a good way no matter what. I hope guys that come in know the core of this team takes things seriously and we want to build something special." Carter-Williams received 104 of a possible 124 first-place votes. The Orlando Magics Victor Oladipo finished second and Trey Burke of the Utah Jazz was third. "Michael made an immediate impact on the court this season, but his dedication, professionalism and contributions to both the organization and the Philadelphia community make him all the more deserving of this award," Sixers owner Josh Harris said in a statement. "This is an incredibly proud moment for the 76ers and one we are thrilled to share with him, the city and our fans." Allen Iverson is the only other player in Sixers history to win the award. The 11th overall pick from Syracuse in last years draft, Carter-Williams is the first player picked 10th or lower to win since Mark Jackson did it in 1987 for New York. "Michael performed and represented the Sixers organization this past season in a manner befitting of the 2013-14 NBA Rookie of the Year," said co-managing owner David Blitzer. "He never stopped working from the moment he burst onto the national scene in our home opener through the final horn at last game of the season, and we are proud to congratulate him on this well-deserved award." Carter-Williams had a spectacular debut, posting 22 points, 12 assists and nine steals to lead the Sixers to a stunning 114-110 victory over the two-time defending champion Miami Heat. He was the second rookie after Shaquille ONeill to be the Eastern Conference Player of the Week in his first week in the NBA. "By opening night, it was clear to us that Michael belonged," Sixers President Sam Hinkie said. "This award marks a lifetime of hard work. ... We congratulate him on this unique achievement and look forward to helping him put in the work necessary to garner even greater success in the future." First-year coach Brett Brown had enough confidence in Carter-Williams to give him the responsibility of leading the team on the court. They traded away All-Star point guard Jrue Holiday to clear the way for Carter-Williams. With an eye toward the future, the Sixers traded Evan Turner, Spencer Hawes and Lavoy Allen in February. They have a 19.9 per cent chance at getting the No. 1 pick in this years draft and are also owed New Orleans lottery pick -- unless the Pelicans win a top-3 pick. With possibly two first-round selections, Carter-Williams and 2013 lottery pick Nerlens Noel returning from a knee injury, the Sixers could be a contender soon. "When I first got here, I really didnt know what to expect," Carter-Williams said. "I am not a person that trusts a lot of people. My circle is really close, especially when it comes to basketball, because everyone has an opinion. But I have a lot of trust in coach Brown." Dorance Armstrong Jr. Cowboys Jersey .

Despite Barcelona showing the same vulnerability in defence, Messis best performance since returning from a lengthy injury layoff ensured that his side bounced back from a defeat by Valencia in the previous round.TORONTO - Michael Bradley is scheduled for surgery Tuesday and fellow Toronto FC star Jermain Defoe may have to follow.Both are back in their home country for medical attention and will miss the MLS clubs end-of-season player availability Tuesday.Toronto general manager Tim Bezbatchenko said Defoe left for England on Sunday in order to meet a German specialist about his nagging groin injury. If surgery is required, the decision will be made over the next couple of days in consultation with the club.Bezbatchenko said there was a time element in that the specialist was only in London for a specific period of time.He needed to get over and get on that persons schedule, which required him to leave, he said in an interview.Bradley, meanwhile, is in New York for a procedure to correct a season-long nerve issue with his foot. The 27-year-old U.S. international has played through pain this season.They want to do it as soon as they possibly can so they can get back on the pitch, Bezbatchenko said of Bradley and Defoe.While Torontos season is over, the players continue to train in town this week with exit meetings planned for the end of the week and early next week.Bradley is expected back by then. Bezbatchenko said the conversation with Defoe will either take place in person or via phone.This happened last year with a couple (of) players, he said. Sometimes you have to have a phone conversation because thats just life.Toronto turned down a club-record bid for the English striker at the end of the summer transfer window, leading to speculation that he might leave when the next window opens in January.At this point, hes still a TFC player, said Bezbatchenko. We need to first get over his injury, then well sit down and talk to the player and figure out what his desires and goals are and see if they match with our club.Obviously wee only want players that want to be here. Michael Gallup Cowboys Jersey. Jermains never said he hasnt wanted to be here. So until that happens, Jermain is here and we want him to be here. Because hes proven to be a prolific scorer in this league and after you have one year under your belt, weve seen other players come back and do even more damage in the second year. Until otherwise, thats going to be our plan.The first public clue that Defoe was back home came via Twitter from a mobile hair extensionist in England.Look who I bumped into @IAmJermainDefoe at my local tesco, tweeted @ExtensionsLeona in posting a photo of a smiling Defoe posing outside her car window at a supermarket.Defoe also returned home in the summer for medical treatment.Defoe, 32, led Toronto with 11 goals in 19 games and TFC never lost (6-0-2) a game in which he scored. But he did not score in the last half of the season, missing 11 of 17 outings through injury and one through suspension.Defoe saw just 360 minutes playing time spread over six games during the second half of the season.Speaking to Toronto reporters last Thursday, he complained of being unable to turn sharply or shoot properly because of the groin injury.Its something that I need fixing, because its stopping me from what I really want to do in games, he said.Defoe also was upset that some have questioned both his commitment to the club and whether he is really injured.He repeated he has never said publicly that he wants to leave a club. But he has stopped short of saying he will be back in Toronto next season.At the end of the day, I dont know what the future holds, he said. But what I would say is that I was desperate to get into the playoffs. Its something I would love to experience.Toronto (11-15-8) missed the post-season for the eighth straight year.
