The Ringer: Fox is Most Improved Player in the NBA
De'Aaron Fox has made another leap this season.
The fourth-year guard is averaging a career high in points (25.0), true shooting percentage (56.7), usage rate (30.8) and minutes played (35.0) this season.
Now, The Ringer lists him as Most Improved Player three quarters of the way through the season.
"Only four players averaged more points per game in Q3 than Fox: Stephen Curry, Donovan Mitchell, Zion Williamson, and Kyrie Irving," writes Dan Devine.
"He had nearly as many 30-point performances in this six-week stretch (10) as he had in the first three seasons of his career (10)."
Devine attributes Fox's increased offensive repertoire as one of the reasons why he's made another leap this season.
