I say Naz Reid...At the first of the year he was soft,couldn't stay on his feet,and seemed to be lazy...now he is the key to winning...I could have picked Smart,K B Williams,and hell all have improved.

From a career perspective, Mays has really found himself. I swear that guy charged 3x a game his first year here.

Reid, and it isn’t close. Maybe Smart in second place. Reid is a completely different player now than he was at the beginning of the season

Tremont Waters, and it’s not even close

It’s almost like the guy was used to be the most athletic guy on the court his entire life and it took some time for him to realize that he needed to change his game. If only people on this board were trying to explain that to the people that doubted him early.

I agree that Waters has fixed some things and become more consistent and is now our best player. However, if the category is most improved I think that Naz had much farther to go and therefore improved “more”

Dark horse because we don't have a previous year to compare it to, but Kavell Bigby-Williams has gotten so much better as the year progressed... His hands on offense were not great to start the year

They have all improved drastically and needing to argue over most improved is a good problem to have!

No joke, also a feather in the cap of WW that he's improved the play of all these guys

One game last year, Mays fouled out with 5 offensive fouls called against him. First time I've ever seen that.

It's hard to argue against Naz right here, but Taylor has probably actually made the biggest strides from Game 1 to today. Reid was up and down from the beginning of the year, and now he is becoming more consistent. He certainly has improved, not arguing that. Taylor started the year off as somebody that we couldn't really depend on and has morphed into a pretty solid player. What is really scary is that he is just scratching the surface right now too. He still has tons more room to improve.

IMO, I see improvement at every position and for every one of our top 8 players in the rotation.

Yeah. Honestly, you can make a case for every single player.

Naz has not improved. He's always been this good but he wasn't comfortable at the beginning of the year. If you're asking for who is the most improved it has to be somebody from the previous year.

I really like how Days has come along He was timid earlier in the year but he has really come on with his defense and rebounding. He has a nice three point shot also. I look for him to be a beast in the future

This, it's hard to pick just one.

If only you could convince him not to foul 90 feet from the basket. I like his energy, but he makes the most freshmen-like mistakes out of last year's signing class. It's amazing how well our freshmen have played this year when you think about it. So much poise, toughness, and moxy.
