Australian teenager Dante Exum has just fallen short of being named on one of the NBA's All-Rookie teams.
Exum's rookie Utah Jazz and Boomer team-mate Joe Ingles didn't fare as well, managing just two votes in the poll of 130 US and Canadian sports journalists.
Australia's other rookie, Chicago Bulls forward Cameron Bairstow, didn't receive a vote.
It was no surprise the Minnesota Timberwolves recently-named Rookie of the Year, Andrew Wiggins, was the lone unanimous choice in the 2014-15 All-Rookie NBA First Team with 130 votes.
Other First Team players were Chicago's Nikola Mirotic, Philadelphia's Nerlens Noel, Orlando's Elfrid Payton and the Los Angeles Lakers' Jordan Clarkson.
The All-Rookie Second Team selections were Boston's Marcus Smart, Minnesota's Zach LaVine, Brooklyn's Bojan Bogdanovic, Denver's Jusuf Nurkic and New York's Langston Galloway.
The 19-year-old Exum, drafted number five last year by the Jazz, received three First Team votes and 11 Second Team votes.
The tally left Exum with the fourth most points of the rookies left out of the First and Second squads.
Another Utah rookie, Rodney Hood, scored more votes than Exum, but also missed out on making a team.
Ingles, one of the NBA's oldest rookies at 27 years old after playing in Europe from 2009 to 2014, received two Second Team votes.
