The only award he got was the ALL ROOKIE TEAM... Wes Unseld averaged half the points(14) and only one more board per game(18) and got MVP along with ROY. The Bullets had a 57-25 record, Elvins team was only 37-45. Still they made the playoffs and with those ridiculous numbers should have got co-rookie of the year!!
Elvin Hayes should have won rookie of the year based on stats. His stats were better that year than Unseld. Also Chamberlain did better stat wise than Unseld that year so Unseld should not have won MVP either.
this video sucks

I met him once when he came back home to Rayville. Very cool gentleman.

His teammate, Stu Lantz, said that Wes should have won the MVP but that Elvin should have won the Rookie of the Year.

Man, I love Hubie Brown, but Elvin Hayes was not the Rookie of the Year, in fact it was Unseld. Also Elvin was 6'9", not 6'11"
