Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday is the winner of the 2020-21 NBA sportsmanship award, the league announced Friday.
"It means a lot," Holiday said after receiving the Joe Dumars Trophy, which is given to the NBA player who best represents the ideals of sportsmanship on the court. "Just knowing that it came from the players, the guys that go through this with me and put their bodies on the line, train in the offseason, it means a lot."
The 30-year-old Holiday, who received 130 of 343 first-place votes in balloting of NBA players, was one of six finalists who were selected by a panel of league executives after each team nominated a single player.
