Why Ayo Dosunmu is making a legitimate case for the NBA’s 2024 Most Improved Player award
For much of the Chicago Bulls‘ 2023-24 campaign, injuries and a deep funk derailed what was hoped to be a big season for the Bulls. But then some internal development opened up by some of those injuries put a silver lining on an otherwise lost season, with backup point guard Coby White getting the lion’s share of the attention.
But almost imperceptibly, reserve guard Ayo Dosunmu is making a quiet, legitimate case for the NBA’s 2024 Most Improved Player award, at least according to some analysts of the league. And among those analysts can be counted the folks behind the “Bulls Central” YouTube channel come down on the side of Dosunmu being in the Most Improved Player mix.
That a second-round pick might even be mentioned in such a conversation while still on their rookie deal.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear their case on why it is Dosunmu over White for Most Improved Player this season.
