Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry is the recipient of the Jerry West Trophy as the 2023-24 Kia NBA Clutch Player of the Year.

The award, which was introduced last season, honors the NBA player who best comes through for his teammates in the clutch. A media panel selected the winner based on nominations from NBA head coaches.

In the 2023-24 regular season, Curry scored an NBA-high 189 points in clutch situations, which are defined as possessions in the final five minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime when the score is within five points.  He also led the league in clutch field goals made (59) and clutch three-pointers made (32).

Curry shot 49.6% from the field, 45.7% from three-point range and 95.1% from the free throw line in clutch time.
