2023 NBA Sixth Man Of The Year Announced

With the playoffs in full swing right now, all the eyes in the sports world are fixed firmly on the NBA, and after a unanimous Coach of the Year was announced, a much more tightly contested race was announced on Thursday night.

Despite strong competition from New York's Immanuel Quickley and Milwaukee's Bobby Portis, the Boston Celtics guard Malcolm Brogdon has officially been announced as the 2023 NBA Sixth Man of the Year after a fantastic campaign.

In 67 games, Brogdon racked up 15 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game, leading the Celtics bench to the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, and while there could be an argument made for any of the finalists, Brogdon certainly deserved this award.
