The magazine gave the NBA team the honor, based on their latest championship, their exciting style of play, and their efforts of social action.
Sports Illustrated on Monday morning announced that it has named the Golden State Warriors the 2018 Sportsperson of the Year. In the summer, the Warriors won their third NBA championship in four years.
“Why them?” the magazine says in its online article by reporter Chris Ballard. “There’s no franchise in sports quite like the Dubs, who were once again wildly successful, socially conscious, fun to love, fun to hate- and never boring.”
The Warriors team, led by Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green, and coached by Steve Kerr, is in the midst of one of the NBA’s great runs of success.
