The Orlando Magic are making their push to see the NBA's youngest player, Dwight Howard, win this year's Rookie Of The Year award.  Below are some stats to back up their claim:

The #1 overall draft pick has played and started in every game this season for the Magic (75 games), averaging 11.4 ppg., 10.1 rpg. and 1.71 blkpg?.Howard would become the first player  in NBA history to start in every regular season outing during his rookie campaign coming directly out of high school.

Leads the Magic in rebounding, blocked shots and field goal percentage?Led (or tied) the team in scoring three times and in rebounding a team-best 50 times.

Ranks in top 10 among all NBA rookies in seven categories: scoring (4th), rebounding (2nd), FG percentage (4th), assists (T-19th), steals (6th), blocked shots (3rd) and minutes played (3rd).

Recorded a team-high 29 double-doubles, the fourth-most by an Eastern Conference rookie since 1997-98?Currently one of only nine players in the NBA to average a double-double?Would be one of only 11 players (along with Okafor) since 1984-85  to average a double-double in his rookie season (Brand, Coleman, L.
