#3 Scoring champion
As mentioned earlier, Stephen Curry led the league in scoring last season, registering a career-high 32 points per game.
At 33, he is the second-oldest scoring champion in NBA history and the oldest since Michael Jordan (35) in 1997-98. Curry dropped 32 a night on an incredible 48/42/91 shooting split while averaging a career-high 12.7 three-point attempts per game.
He scored a total of 2051 points in the season to narrowly edge out Bradley Beal. That was Curry's second scoring title, and he now has the two most efficient scoring titles in NBA history. He won the other one in 2015-16, when he averaged 30.1 points per game on an absurd 50/45/90 shooting split.
#2 Three-point contest champion

Stephen Curry is widely regarded as the greatest shooter in NBA history. So winning the three-point contest is something everyone expects him to do with ease.
Former legendary players like Dwyane Wade and Reggie Miller declared before the contest that everyone else, other than Curry, was shooting for second place. However, Utah Jazz's Mike Conley certainly made Curry sweat, scoring 27 points in the championship round. The championship came down to the final ball, with Curry scoring 28 points to win.
That was Stephen Curry's second three-point contest title. He won his first in 2015, and narrowly lost in 2016 and 2019. He also won the NBA Skills Challenge in 2011.
Curry dedicated his 2021 three-point contest trophy to his Splash brother, Klay Thompson, saying, "This one goes out to Klay Thompson".
#1 Stephen Curry won the 2021 ESPY award for Best NBA Player
Stephen Curry has been breaking records and dropping jaws all year. He was named the Best NBA Player at the 2021 ESPY awards.
'ESPY' stands for Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly, and it is the ABC network's annual event. Curry won this honor for the second time in his career, doing so for the first time in 2015.
Curry's first nomination for an ESPY award was during his sophomore season in college with the Davidson Wildcats. He was a nominee in the Breakthrough Player of the Year category that year.
Curry won two ESPY awards in 2015 - Best NBA Player and Best Male Athlete - and was nominated for the Best Record-Breaking Performance in 2016.
