Celtics' Brad Stevens Named NBA Executive of Year

Stevens received 11 first-place votes from 30 executives and became the 12th two-time winner after Boston stayed a title contender despite roster changes.

  • On Monday, Boston President Brad Stevens won the NBA Executive of the Year award, his second time receiving the trophy in the past three seasons.
  • Stevens earned the award after building a roster that secured the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, then navigating the departure of four players to avoid a massive luxury tax bill.
  • A panel of 30 basketball executives placed Stevens first with 11 first-place votes; he appeared on 17 total ballots while Atlanta's Onsi Saleh finished second.
  • Other recent NBA awards include unanimous Defensive Player of the Year Victor Wembanyama and Clutch Player of the Year Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who received 96 of 100 first-place votes.
  • The NBA will announce remaining awards, including Most Valuable Player and Coach of the Year, later this week alongside the Twyman-Stokes Teammate and Hustle Award winners.
