The NBA G League Rookie of the Year is an annual NBA G League (formerly known as the NBA Development League) award given since the league's inaugural season to the top rookie of the regular season. The league's head coaches determine the award by voting and it is usually presented to the honoree during the playoffs.[1]

Fred House was the inaugural winner while playing for the North Charleston Lowgators.[2] Four international players have won the award: Edwin Ubiles of Puerto Rico in 2012, Abdel Nader of Egypt in 2017, Ángel Delgado of the Dominican Republic in 2019, and Oscar Tshiebwe of the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 2024. By position, guards have won 10 times, forwards nine times, and centers twice.
