With the NBA regular season over and done with, it’s time for end-of-season awards to be announced. Sunday brought the first step in that process.
While voting occurs at season’s end the league has shifted the dates around in recent years for awards such as MVP and Rookie of the Year. In the past everything was unveiled very soon after the final regular-season game. Over the last few seasons, though, the NBA has taken to revealing the winners during the playoffs with all the attention the postseason brings. Based on past timelines, the winners of this year’s awards will be announced sometime in May.
