(Cleveland Cavaliers) LeBron James called (Golden State Warriors) Steph Curry’s Most Valuable Player award “well-deserved” while joking he was glad to see another kid from Akron win the award.
“If my phone was on, I would’ve definitely congratulated him a lot,” James said, referring to his social media blackout during the postseason. “I think it’s well-deserved. You see the team success, that’s the first thing that pops out. Franchise-record in wins. … He’s the catalyst of that whole ship, and I think he’s had an unbelievable season. I think it’s great that another kid born in Akron, Ohio can win an MVP.”
Both James and Curry were born at Akron General Hospital.
