Timberwolves veteran guard Jamal Crawford ended up winning the award with 1,233 total points.

McConnell had himself one heck of a season for the Sixers on the court 6.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in 76 games. He was 13th in the NBA in steal percentage (2.6).

McConnell recently had his team option executed to remain a Sixer for next season.
