The 'NBA's Most Improved Player Award winners' quiz

Created on April 28, 2025 | Total tries: 14063 | Average Score: 18.0 out of 39 (46%) | Quiz FAQ

Julius Randle started his NBA career about as disastrously as someone can, suffering a devastating leg injury just 14 minutes into his NBA debut.

Randle would come back in 2015 and play in three full seasons for the Lakers, occasionally showing fans why he was selected with the seventh overall pick in the 2014 draft, but left for New Orleans via free agency after the 2017-18 season.

Now, he could become a major reason why LeBron James, Luka Doncic and Co. get an early playoff exit after scoring 25 points and logging 43 minutes in the Minnesota Timberwolves Game 4 win over Los Angeles.

Which brings us to today's quiz. After reviving his career with the New York Knicks -- including a Most Improved Player award in 2020-21 -- Randle has been a key part of the Wolves 3-1 series lead. With that being said, how many NBA players who have won the Most Improved Player Award can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
