There is no one quite like Jordan Clarkson.
And when it comes to coming off the bench, there is no one better.
That’s right. They guy they call Six is officially the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year.
Clarkson was awarded the honor Monday evening during a surprise interview on TNT. The Utah Jazz guard thought he was simply sitting down to discuss the possibility with his teammate and fellow Sixth Man finalist Joe Ingles, when Ingles broke the good news.
Clarkson is the first Utah Jazz player to ever win the honor. He beat out Ingles and Knicks star Derrick Rose foe the award.
