Analysis:
Mozgov's clean bill of health certainly helped him achieve a position in the starting five, but it would be unfair to say that part of that wasn't due to his improvement throughout the year. He proved that when given the minutes, he was a legitimate double-double threat. That being said, the return of JaVale McGee (leg) may pose problems for Mozgov's value since McGee will likely assume the starting center role in 2014-15.
