Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox was named the runaway winner of the NBA's inaugural Jerry West Clutch Player of the Year Award Tuesday night, capping a stellar season for the sixth-year guard, who has played a huge part in Sacramento's dramatic resurgence this season.
Fox earned 91 out of 100 possible first-place votes and 460 out of a possible 500 total points to cruise to the award, which he'd been seen as the massive favorite to win.
He was followed in the voting by Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (one first-place vote, 104 total points) and Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan (80 total points).
Several players received a first-place vote for the inaugural award, including New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson, Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell, Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving and Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, who received two first-place votes.
