The National Basketball Association (NBA) has announced that two-time reigning MVP Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors has the top selling jersey based on NBAStore.eu sales since the beginning of the 2016-17 NBA season.

Curry, the NBA’s first ever unanimous MVP, has helped raise the profile of the Golden State Warriors, who top the list in terms of team merchandise sales, followed by the NBA Champion Cleveland Cavaliers and some of the most iconic NBA franchises including the Chicago Bulls, the New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Isaiah Thomas of the Boston Celtics has appeared in the Top 10 for the first time ever after a fantastic season where he has averaged over 29 points per game, ranking second in the league, preceded only by the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Russell Westbrook.

Thomas has led the Celtics to the Atlantic Division title for the first time in five years, as well as battling for the top seed in the Eastern Conference with Cleveland, with just one game remaining in the regular season. The point guard’s fourth quarter heroics has seen his popularity rise, ranking No. 8 in the list of the most popular jerseys.

Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook’s record-breaking season has led to his jersey being ranked No. 4 on the list.

Westbrook is only the second player ever to achieve this feat after the Big O and is dominating MVP discussions as a result.
