Stephen Curry wins NBA MVP

Another day, another record for Stephen Curry. And this one is quite big. 

The Golden State Warriors guard became the first unanimous MVP winner in NBA history on Tuesday, earning all 131 first-place votes from a group of NBA sportswriters and broadcasters, for a total of 1,310 points. 

San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard finished second in the voting with 634 points, while Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James was third with 631 points. 

 Curry is the first player in NBA history to average at least 30 points a game despite playing less than 35 minutes per game (his exact numbers: 30.1 points, 34.2 minutes).

The 28-year-old also obliterated the NBA single-season record for 3-pointers scored with 402. To put into context, he set the record last season with 286.

He also led the NBA in free-throw percentage (90.8%) and steals (2.14 per game) while also averaging 6.7 assists and a career-high 5.4 rebounds in 79 games.

Curry shot a career-high 50.4% from the field and 45.4% from 3-point range. 

He also improved his scoring average by 6.3 points from last season (23.8 points per game), the largest year-over-year increase in league history for a reigning MVP.
