NBA Most Improved Player: Jalen Brunson (New York Knicks)
- Runner-Up: Alperen Sengün (Houston Rockets), Tyrese Maxey (Philadelphia 76ers)
Tyrese Maxey will probably win, but his jump in performance is primarily due to the significantly larger role due to Harden’s departure. His efficiency dropped a bit here, but the Sixers guard still proved that he is a good second option.
Our award goes to Brunson, who came third in the voting last year, but has made the leap into an absolute superstar this year. Brunson is now creating even more for himself, now taking almost 7 three-pointers per game, getting to the free throw line more often and posting a career-high 6.7 assists. It hardly mattered whether Julius Randle was available or not.
