NBA 2019-20 Season: Predicting the regular season award winners

Sixth Man of the Year: Lou Williams

Lou Williams

Once again, the Clippers will be looking to Lou Williams to lead the second unit with his professional scoring ability. 'Sweet Lou' has already won the award thrice in his career and despite his 32-year-old age, the combo guard isn't slowing down by any means.

Even though he may average fewer points per game next season with the additions of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, Williams can still average over 15 a game and hit many clutch shots.

Coach of the Year: Brad Stevens

Brad Stevens

Despite the decisions of Kyrie Irving and Al Horford to depart the Celtics in free agency, GM Danny Ainge managed to sign Kemba Walker, Enes Kanter, and Vincent Poirier whilst drafting Romeo Langford, Grant Williams, Carsen Edwards and Tremont Waters.

The team will also expect Hayward, Tatum, and Brown to have breakout seasons, therefore if the Cs manage to be the 2nd/3rd seed in the East, coach Brad Stevens will have a great chance at receiving the credit he deserves by winning the Coach of the Year award.

This is because teams who supposedly overachieve or have one of the best records in the league end up with their coach winning this award.
