During his illustrious career, Jordan was named MVP five times. The Hall of Famer also earned six NBA championships, six NBA Finals MVP Awards, 11 All-NBA Team selections, 14 NBA All-Star selections, three NBA All-Star Game MVP Awards, 10 scoring titles, an NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award, an NBA Rookie of the Year Award and selections to the NBA\u2019s 50th and 75th\u00a0Anniversary Teams.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Smith, retired VP of Innovation Special Projects at Nike, Inc., and Jordan Brand designer, worked in creative partnership with Jordan to design the new trophy, which symbolizes an NBA player\u2019s journey to winning an MVP. Smith has collaborated with Jordan on countless projects over the past two decades. Artist Victor Solomon will manufacture the trophy on a yearly basis.<\/p>\n<p>The bronze trophy features a player breaking out of a rock to reach for the ultimate rock \u2014 a crystal basketball. From the bottom to its top, the patina of the trophy grows more burnished \u2014 \u201craw to refined\u201d \u2014 signifying the MVP\u2019s hard work and progression from entering the league to achieving the NBA\u2019s greatest individual honor. The trophy\u2019s reach symbolizes an MVP\u2019s endless chase for greatness.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally included throughout are subtle nods that pay tribute to the trophy\u2019s namesake:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The trophy stands 23.6 inches tall and weighs 23.6 pounds, representing Jordan\u2019s jersey number (23) and number of NBA championships (6).<br \/>\n\u2022 Its five-sided base is a nod to Jordan\u2019s five league MVPs.<br \/>\n\u2022 The namesake badge is six-sided, a nod to Jordan\u2019s six NBA championships.<br \/>\n\u2022 The 15-degree angle of the base is a nod to Jordan\u2019s 15-season career.<br \/>\n\u2022 The crystal basketball consists of 23 points, a nod to Jordan\u2019s jersey number.<br \/>\n\u2022 The crystal basketball measures 1.23 inches in diameter, in reference to the singularity of the MVP and Jordan\u2019s standout career.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m incredibly honored to have created the NBA\u2019s MVP trophy in partnership with Michael Jordan,\u201d said Smith. \u201cSculpting Michael\u2019s vision of his own pursuit of athletic achievement into this award has been the opportunity and challenge of a lifetime. As we worked together on this project, it was very important to Michael that the figure not be a likeness of him, but instead that the recipient should be able to see himself in the award. For Michael, naming the award in his honor was recognition enough.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>The Jerry West Trophy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Awarded to the Kia NBA Clutch Player of the Year<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-971667 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.nba.com\/manage\/2022\/12\/jerry-west.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.nba.com\/manage\/2022\/12\/jerry-west.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.nba.com\/manage\/2022\/12\/jerry-west-784x441.jpg 784w, https:\/\/cdn.nba.com\/manage\/2022\/12\/jerry-west-1568x882.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/cdn.nba.com\/manage\/2022\/12\/jerry-west-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.nba.com\/manage\/2022\/12\/jerry-west-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The NBA will introduce a new Kia Performance Award at the end of the 2022-23 season, the Kia NBA Clutch Player of the Year, with its recipient receiving The Jerry West Trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Voted on by a media panel based on nominations from NBA head coaches, the award will honor the NBA player who best comes through for his teammates in the clutch.<\/p>\n<p>Legendary Los Angeles Lakers broadcaster Chick Hearn gave West the nickname \u201cMr. Clutch\u201d for his extraordinary shooting at the end of close games.

The trophies all feature an embedment inside a 15-inch crystal net structure. The front face is flat to allow for a direct line of sight to the icon, and the etching of the award and recipient is detailed at the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile working alongside the NBA to reimagine the league\u2019s trophy offerings, our singular goal was to create a cohesive collection of honors worthy of the athletes who raise them,\u201d said Solomon. \u201cThese trophies celebrate the hard work of the players who reach the pinnacle of individual excellence while honoring the NBA legends who have defined that greatness.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>The Hakeem Olajuwon
