Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard was awarded the 2025 NBA Sixth Man of the Year after an impressive 2024-25 season, surpassing Malik Beasley and Ty Jerome in voting. Pritchard set a franchise record for the most 3-pointers made off the bench, achieving 14.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game while shooting 47.2% overall. He is the fourth Celtic to win this award, joining legends like Kevin McHale and Bill Walton, and is poised to continue his strong performance in the playoffs following a notable buzzer-beater in the NBA Finals.
