Why Kris Dunn should win Big East Player of the Year

A co-winner of the POTY trophy last season, Providence's lottery pick point guard shouldn't have to share the honor this time around.

Few predictions were closer to being forged in steel at the beginning of this season than this one: Kris Dunn would win Big East Player of the Year. When Providence was 14-1 and No. 8 in the country in early January, the engraving on the trophy might as well have been made. Later in the month, after the Friars toppled conference big shot Villanova, you would be crazy to think anyone else had a shot (unless you were leaning towards Dunn's teammate Ben Bentil).
