The playoffs are fast approaching. The Toronto Raptors regular ends on April 9th, the NBA as a whole on April 10th. This also means that NBA award season is upon us.
The NBA no longer announces regular season awards during the playoffs. Instead, viewers will have to wait until late June for the third annual NBA Awards Ceremony. Last season’ winners included James Harden (Most Valuable Player), Rudy Gobert (Defensive Player of the Year) and Ben Simmons (Rookie of the Year).
One of the more underrated awards is Most Improved Player.
