Kris Dunn deserves to be in the discussion for the most improved player award

Kris Dunn was the fifth pick in the 2016 NBA Draft. He had a lot of pressure on himself to deliver right away in the NBA. Dunn was the backup point guard in Minnesota. In his first season in the NBA, he averaged 3.8 points and 2.4 assists per game.

Kris didn’t get a lot of playing time with the Timberwolves. He wasn’t playing with a lot of confidence, and it showed throughout his first season in the NBA.

This season is way different. Getting traded to the Bulls was a fresh start for Kris.
