Boston Celtics Jrue Holiday wins 2024-25 NBA Sportsmanship award, Full Winners List since 1996..

Jrue Holiday of the Boston Celtics has won the NBA’s sportsmanship award for the second time, making him the fifth player in league history to win that trophy in multiple years.

Holiday received about 34% of the first-place votes cast by nearly 400 current NBA players to decide the award winner.

Cleveland’s Jarrett Allen finished second, Dallas’ Kyrie Irving was third, Oklahoma City’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was fourth, the Los Angeles Lakers’ Dorian Finney-Smith was fifth and Orlando’s Franz Wagner was sixth.

Holiday joins four-time winner Mike Conley, three-time winner Grant Hill and two-time winners Jason Kidd and Kemba Walker as people to win the award more than once. Holiday will receive the Joe Dumars Trophy, named for the Basketball Hall of Famer, a two-time champion and the inaugural winner of the sportsmanship award after the 1995-96 season.

Each of the NBA’s 30 teams nominated one player for the sportsmanship award, and league executives narrowed that list down to six finalists — one from each division.

Holiday is also a three-time recipient of the Twyman-Stokes Teammate of the Year Award and also won the 2025 NBA’s Social Justice Champion Award. That award has been in existence for five years; Holiday has been a finalist in three of them.

2023-24 Last Year Winner: Tyrese Maxey of Philadelphia 76ers is the recipient of the Joe Dumars Trophy for winning the 2023-24 NBA Sportsmanship Award.
