What fans probably missed about the 1st annual NBA Awards Show

The first ever NBA Awards Show featured the premiere recognitions of the year, but it also came with other noteworthy citations.

The fans have spoken and chosen their favorite players from a shortlist of candidates in a group categories during tonight's NBA Awards Show.

Golden State Warriors teammates Draymond Green and Stephen Curry took home the award for Assist of the Year, after a full-court heave by Green, igniting a blazing fast break, with Curry catching the ball at the end of the court, tossing a no-look lob for Kevin Durant to finish.

San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard walked away with the Block of the Year, edging Hassan Whiteside and Kristaps Porzingis with an emphatic game-saving chase down block on MVP candidate James Harden back in March.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Victor Oladipo won Dunk of the Year with a two-handed baseline-twisting jam over Dwight Howard, leaving everyone on their feet.

Russell Westbrook took the Game-Winner of the Year award with this gut-check three-point dagger that took away the Denver Nuggets‘ playoff hopes, totaling 50 points, 16 rebounds, and 10 assists in a record-breaking night, tallying his 42nd triple-double of the season.

Klay Thompson took home the Performance of the Year award with his 60-point outing against the Indiana Pacers, despite phenom Devin Booker out-staging the NBA-season best with a 70-point night against the Boston Celtics late in the season. Thompson only took 11 dribbles to get his 60 points in 29 total minutes of court action.

Kevin Durant won the Best Playoff Moment award with a clutch game-winning three-point pull-up over LeBron James in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, securing a 3-0 lead in the series.
