Sixth Man of the Year

Winner: Lou Williams, LA Clippers 

While Lou Williams has started a bunch of games this season, he does still technically qualify
for the award, and man does he deserve it.

Lou Will has put together a legitimate all star level season, setting career highs in both points (22.8) and assist (5.4). Williams was snubbed from the all-star game, and won’t be snubbed from this award.

The Sixth man award traditionally goes to a scoring guard (Eric Gordon, JR, J Crawford), and Lou Williams fits the mold perfectly.

Runner Up: Eric Gordon
