Video: Who's the real MVP of basketball? Without a doubt, Stephen Curry
The 28-year old became the first player in NBA history to be unanimously voted the Most Valuable Player for the current season.
Take a bow, Stephen Curry. Because you have gone where no one else, not even legends like Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson or Wilt Chamberlain, have ventured.
On Tuesday night, the 28-year old who plays for the Golden State Warriors was named the National Basketball Association's Most Valuable Player for the second consecutive season. While that is by itself an achievement, what made it historic was that Curry was the first unanimous winner in the 61 years that NBA has handed out the award, a feat which no one else has achieved before.
And it came on a night where he yet again displayed his magic. Away from the action for the past two weeks due to an injury, Curry marked his return in Game four of the second round of the playoffs against the Portland Trail Blazers with another astounding performance – recording 40 points in the game with 17 of them coming in the overtime period, a national record.
Any way you look at it, it has been one incredible season for the 28-year trailblazer who now holds a number of records – the most three-pointers in a single season (402), the highest number of consecutive games where he has scored at least one three-pointer (152), and, now, the most points scored in the overtime period (17).
But if you want to forget the statistics for a moment, here are his top 30 plays over the season. Watch, enjoy and marvel.
