Jalen Johnson has emerged as one of the best young players in the league, significantly improving his stats after a limited previous season due to injuries. This year, he is averaging 19.4 PPG, 10.0 RPG, 5.4 APG, 1.4 SPG, and 1.1 BPG, showcasing his all-around game. His performance puts him on track to join an exclusive group of players who have averaged over 18 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists in a single season. Despite playing for a rebuilding Hawks team, his impressive numbers could give him an edge in the Most Improved Player race. However, competition from teammate Dyson Daniels, who is excelling defensively, could split the votes between them.
