This is shaping up to be 2009 all over again. Tyreke v. Steph Curry.

Assuming LaMelo wins, hopefully history will also repeat in that the runner up goes on to become the superior player and transcendent.

Didn't 09/10 also have Brandon Jennings in the mix for a while?

As I recall, he had a really good first month & then slowly faded away.

Good news! Hope he plays for the Hornet rematch

Those two going head to head, pass to pass will be fun to watch.

I felt like the first half of the year it was between him and Reke and the second half Reke and Steph. But he definitely faded rapidly from the discussion by the end. Although I'm pretty sure a fair amount was just not wanting to give the honor to a Kings player.

IIRC Jennings largely rode the wave of a 50 point game he produced early in the season.

Tyreke can apply to play again this year. I wonder what he'll do.
