CLEVELAND, OH – Cleveland Charge F Tristan Enaruna has been named the 2025-26 Kia NBA G League Most Improved Player, the League office announced today.  The award is given as the result of a vote of the 30 team head coaches and general managers.

“This award is a huge testament to the daily work Tristan puts in, how intentional he’s been with his development, and the growing confidence he continues to play with,” said Charge Head Coach Eli Kell-Abrams.  “We could not be happier for T and we are excited for him to continue to grow during a long and successful career in this game.”

Enaruna played in 38 total games this season and averaged 20.3 points on .548 shooting with 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 31.2 minutes per game.  He earned an NBA Call-Up with the Cleveland Cavaliers as a two-way player on January 28.
