NBA 2017-18: Most improved players

Chicago Bulls v Dallas Mavericks
Dunn (32) rising above all odds

Victor Oladipo (SG, Indiana Pacers):

Sacramento Kings v Indiana Pacers
Victor Oladipo (4) is back on track

In a draft class that is widely considered to be one of the worst of all-time, Victor Oladipo was the second overall pick and projected to be Orlando Magic's saviour for seasons to come.

After three disappointing years there though, he was traded to Oklahoma City Thunder - where he averaged 15.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game with a shooting percentage of 44.2% as well as a 3-point percentage of 36.1% last season.

Coming into the new campaign, he was traded to the Indiana Pacers for Paul George and the move has definitely reinvigorated him, back at the place where he dominated college basketball for three years.

Currently, he's averaging 24.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game with improved shooting statistics. If he continues to impress, it'd be a surprise not to see the 25-year-old a prime candidate for the Most Improved Player of the Year accolade.
