With his performance in the Boston Celtics’ 2022-23 regular season, veteran floor general Malcolm Brogdon won himself the NBA’s 2023 Sixth Man of the Year award, the first Celtics player to get that particular piece of hardware since Hall of Fame big man Bill Walton won it in 1986.
The Virginia alum has been just what Boston needed this season to maintain focus and efficacy from the bench unit. Brogdon’s 14.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per contest were nothing to sneeze at, especially considering his blistering 44.4% 3-point shooting efficiency, among the best in the league.
