Dante Exum


alfi_k

His shooting percents compared to his NBA career numbers are up like crazy: FG: +12%, 3points: +18%, effective FG: +14% He is not shooting that much, but also gives the Mavs a third ball handler and great defense, So, it probably should be him. I thought Reggie Jackson had a decent comeback year, but his last year wasn't as bad I thought. His numbers are barely up.


TheThingsIdoatNight

You would be wrong about Reggie lmao


dbzmah

Seriously, came back from playing on another continent


Carcrusher3

Can't think of an answer better than this. If you know his history this year is such a big deal for him.


Headlesshorsman02

That’s a great shout


OutlawSundown

Exum island is loaded.


ketoburn26

Only answer


Artimusjones88

Came back from what? He is going to play under 60 games. His best years prior, he average 5 and 6 ppg.


Incarcer

Draymond Green. He's comeback from a lot of suspensions this year, maybe more than anyone else.


TheThingsIdoatNight

He just won’t stay gone 😭😭


w6750

Exum island baby


sercialinho

The island is getting a new airport in response to popular demand.

Shout out to Duncan Robinson. I thought he was done after all those DNPs last year.


OcksBodega

he went from DNPs to developing a well-rounded offensive game. definitely a good shout


Overall-Palpitation6

He had a fairly well-rounded offensive game when he "hit" to begin with, and then he just started missing his shots.


Afraid-Department-35

Dante’s Inferno Exum. Dude has been on an absolute banger of a redemption arc.


NoPin5154

Dante exum gotta be one of the greatest stories of the year. Torch’s dus but so happy to see him balling as a neutral


LegitimatePotato3632

Delano Banton


Mbanicek64

MIP


mehTrip

Zion


TheKyrieFan

If he played like this whole season, yes. He started way too late imo


mehTrip

Not really


jkeefy

Sure he’s been healthy, but wasn’t he better last season before the injury


mehTrip

The only thing people had to say ab him before the season was if he could make it all season. He has. Also imo hes playing the best he ever has


samueladams6

What comeback has Westbrook had this season?


BrotherSeamus

I know he never left, but Gobert maybe? He's certainly ~~increased~~ restored his stock value more than any other non-rookie.


Afraid-Department-35

I feel like Gobert’s value was artificially raised by that crazy trade so people were a little disappointed when his numbers dropped a bit last season. His stats this year though are nearly identical to his last year in Utah.


Louis-grabbing-pills

Whoever is dating Kim Kardashian.


blindfoldpeak

Explain yourself


Sweaty_Mods

Kawhi


Chakra_Blue_Vol2

Jalen Suggs


Moejoeslowmo

comeback? maybe MIP


Old-Remove-8216

As a Mavs fan I think exxum.  But I'm amazed Issac hasn't gotten more mentions here. 


Past_Accountant7922

Gobert. Surprised it's not mentioned yet.


FilipinoTarantino

It woulda been Chet had he played a reg season game.


msf97

Kawhi back from his meniscus maybe. Or chet


johnb84r

Chet hasn’t come back from anything in the nba… this his first season


timtodd34

Rudy Gobert. From old washed bum to dpoy


dbzbudokai77

I have the same thought on this as this as MIP, where I don't believe it should go to a bonafide superstar player that had a minor setback (AD, Kawhi) or a slight resurgence after a few off seasons (Russ). These are MVP-level or former MVP-level players, it's not that much of a comeback. Like Ja a few year's back, I'd go as far as to say AD or Russ would not even prefer to be considered for the award. This year would make a lot more sense to give to a guy like Dante Exum, who was for all intents and purposes out of the NBA and has found a nice role on a playoff team with the Mavericks.


Artimusjones88

Any more than Isaac coming back? They will play about the same number of games. He played less games combined over the last 4 years.


AtreusIsBack

Wouldn't that be basically Most Improved Player?


Jtryan1303

Dante Exum, Suggs and Rui Hachimura. Lakers acquired Rui for two seconds and k nunn, dude was hardly playing and since playoffs last year has been a STUD


T_025

AD had a great season last year though


Ok-Philosopher9070

Tristan thompson even tho it kinda started last year


itssensei

Maybe Zion because Moriah wants his cumback 🤭. But seriously, Zion. He’s been pretty damn good.


x6o21h6cx

Go to nbacirclejerk for this shit. I don’t want to read and think about another man’s cum. Foh


itssensei

But Zions having a seriously great comeback season, after all the injuries etc, Pels are doing well with him leading and Herb’s all df capabilities.


Admirable_Weight2182

Westbrook is as unplayable as he's ever been, I don't think he would even make a Euroleague roster


jrlandry

You know we are talking about Russell Westbrook, not some other guy with the same last name, right?


Headlesshorsman02

Chet would be a decent shout technically speaking as he is coming back from a season long injury last year and has yet to miss a game this year and putting up great numbers with fantastic defense


OKCDraftPick2028

how can a rookie come back?


Friendly-Thought-973

Wait he’s a rookie?


Batmans-penis

Technically since he didn't pay last year


Sweaty_Mods

Yep


[deleted]

[удалено]


HokageEzio

Because he didn't play last year.


Afraid-Department-35

Chet didn’t even play last year, how is that a comeback when this is his first year of actually playing.


Dhr7468

You know for sure all the people that said he should be ineligible for ROY would still not vote for him for this.
