According to Evan Miya, Pitt has two of the best five-man lineups in the country in terms of efficiency margin:

Lowe/Leggett/Dunn/Austin/Corhen has the fourth-highest efficiency margin in the country. Lowe/Leggett/Dunn/Guillermo/Corhen is 13th.

Auburn is the only other team with two five-man lineups in the top 15 nationally in efficiency margin.

Obviously, there are some caveats with two lineups that include Dunn, since he missed a bunch of games. Both both of those lineups played 90+ possessions on each end of the court, so it's not entirely a small sample size. At the same time, most of those possessions came against mid or low-major opponents, so that's worth considering, too.

Overall, I think it speaks (somewhat) to the value Dunn brings and how Pitt is at its best with him on the court (although I know that most people's concerns are not about the guards).
