Curry was nominated for the best NBA player of the year and won the award. While his teammate, Klay Thompson won the best comeback athlete of the year honors.

For Curry, it wasn't the only award of the night. The Warriors point guard also won the best record-breaking performance award for passing Ray Allen for most 3-pointers made in NBA history.

The guard duo, which led the Warriors to an NBA championship this past season, also netted the franchise the team of the year award at the ESPYs.

It was Curry's and Thompson's fourth title together, but Warriors superstar Curry won the Finals MVP for the first time.

Curry averaged 31.2 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 steals in the NBA finals, where the Warriors beat the Boston Celtics in six games.

Thompson, who missed 941 days of playing time during his rehab, contributed at a high level after his comeback and helped the Warriors to win their fourth championship in eight years.

This past season Thompson averaged 20.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.8 assists.
