3 players who shouldn't be considered for NBA's 2019 Most Improved Player Award

#2 De'Aaron Fox (Sacramento Kings)

De'Aaron Fox has developed immensely during his second year in the NBA

After enjoying an impressive but somewhat muted rookie season, De'Aaron Fox has this year announced himself as one of the NBA's most exciting young players. While the Sacramento Kings are set to once again miss out on the playoffs, the 6ft 3in point guard has led them to their best win percentage for more than a decade.

Through 76 games, Fox is averaging 17.5 points and 7.3 assists, although it remains questionable whether second-year players should be eligible for the award.

Just like Fox has experienced this season, many young players around the league often start to make huge strides after having an initial 12 months to get familiar with the demands of the NBA. If Fox was to once again improve into his third year then he would be the leading candidate for the 2020 award, however, the Most Improved Player award should go to someone other than a year two player.
