Is Hedo an up-and-coming player? I don’t think so. Memphis’ Rudy Gay, Portland’s LaMarcus Aldridge and Minnesota’s Al Jefferson better fit that description. They finished second, third and fourth in the voting, respectively. They’re all young players who deserved consideration for the league’s most improved player award. Big Al, by the way, garnered six first-place votes, 16 second-place votes and 22 third-place votes for a total of 100 points.
