Victor Oladipo stepped up his game in a big way last season and in the process, took the Indiana Pacers with him.
His evolution as a player took himself and his team to a level no one expected as Oladipo locked himself into winning the Most Improved Player award by the All-Star break, something few expected when he was traded for the Pacers.
Most players can’t elevate their game the way he did, but he might do it again, or perhaps even win an MVP.
According to Pacers sideline reporter Pat Boylan, several Pacers said he is the most improved this offseason, and Real GM contributor Keith Smith tweeted that other players in the NBA are saying the same thing.
