LEBRON James may be the best and most impactful player in the NBA today, but Steph Curry is still the most popular.
After all, the Golden State superstar sustained his status by topping the best-selling jersey list for the third straight year, wearing Warriors. No. 30 that’s selling hotter than that of James’ Cleveland No. 23.
Kyrie Irving’s Boston kit came in at No. 3, while Kevin Durant’s Dubs jersey followed at No. 4, with Rookie of the Year Ben Simmons’ Philadelphia jersey rounding out the Top Five based on the overall sales on NBAStore.com from April to June.
The Warriors, who have won three of the last four NBA titles, also remained the most popular team after having the top-selling merchandise in the league, followed by the Cavs, and the Celtics.
Celtics rookie Jayson Tatum (No. 7) and Toronto star DeMar DeRozan (No. 14) made their debut on the most popular jerseys list.
