A clutch moment — one of many for the Sacramento guard this season.
Fox became Sacramento’s first individual winner of a major award since Tyreke Evans held off Stephen Curry for rookie of the year in 2010.
The voting was a runaway; Fox, who led the league with 194 clutch points, got 91 of the possible 100 first-place votes.
He becomes the first recipient of The Jerry West Award; it was named for the player who earned the moniker of “Mr. Clutch” during his career.
The Kings — who currently lead defending champion Golden State 2-0 in a Western Conference first-round series — reached the postseason for the first time in 17 years.
