He’s cooking right now. Points, rebounds and blocks.

only his 2nd year but he was 13th pick last season. Was high on him after last season and he seems to have taken a jump.

Thoughts about him so far this season?

stats: 18.0 points, 15.3 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.3 blocks

    But you’re just making up your own definition. The award isn’t “most unexpected improved player”, who said players who are expected to improve shouldn’t be eligible?

      I’d say historically the MIP award has just been “the biggest surprise” and to many a second year improvement isn’t surprising

      Maybe that doesn’t line up exactly with the name of the award but you can’t deny that’s how it’s been interpreted through the years

        How? It’s called “most improved player” so the player who improved the most should be awarded, it’s literally in the name. Nowhere does it say it has to be a surprise.
