As NBC Sports California's James Ham wrote, Fox took a massive leap this past season. Fox went from 11.6 points per game as a rookie to 17.3 as a sophomore. His assist numbers spiked from 4.4 to 7.3. And he improved vastly as a shooter, boosting his field goal percentage from 41 percent to 45 percent. From 3-point range, Fox went from 30 percent to 37 percent.

But the competition for the award will be fierce. Along with teammate Buddy Hield, Raptors forward Pascal Siakam, Nets guard D'Angelo Russell, Clippers big man Montrezl Harrell and Hawks forward Jon Collins will also garner lots of support.
