Sacramento point guard Tyreke Evans edged out Golden State's Stephen Curry and Milwaukee's Brandon Jennings to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award.

Evans received the honor on Thursday after becoming the fourth rookie ever to average at least 20 points, five rebounds and five assists per game. He joined an illustrious club that includes Oscar Robertson, Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

Evans was the fourth pick in last year's NBA draft. He led all rookies in scoring at 20.1 points per game, was second in assists at 5.8 per game and fifth in rebounds at 5.3

Evans is the first Sacramento player ever to win the award.
