Stephen Curry from Golden State topped the league in scoring during intense moments this season, and he’s now earned another honor to showcase his achievements.
On Thursday night, Curry was named the NBA’s Clutch Player of the Year, adding this accolade to his impressive list of accomplishments, which includes two MVPs, an All-Star Game MVP, an NBA Finals MVP, a Western Conference Finals MVP, and nine All-NBA selections.
This award, named after Jerry West, holds special significance for Curry as West has been involved with the Warriors in the past.
During the announcement on TNT, Curry shared admiration for West’s passion for basketball and his relentless competitive spirit, which greatly influenced the Warriors organization during West’s time with them.
Curry was chosen as one of the three finalists alongside DeMar DeRozan from Chicago and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from Oklahoma City.
