Utah's Jordan Clarkson, the only player to come off the bench and score 40 points in a game this season, was announced on Monday (Tuesday in Manila) as the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year.
And his closest competition was from a teammate: Utah's Joe Ingles was second, marking the first time the top two finishers for this award came from the same franchise.
