On Monday morning, the announcement came that Steph Curry was the winner of the NBA Kia Most Valuable Player award. That wasn’t much of a surprise considering that Curry was the best player on the best team this past season; that’s usually enough for most voters to swing the award in a players’ direction. But what was unexpected was how Russell Westbrook fared in the voting process.
Westbrook finished fourth, falling behind to James Harden and LeBron James in overall points.
