First half: Stephen Curry

In the first half of the 2022-2023 season, Stephen Curry was the leader of NBA jersey sales. This was a highlight because even though he always has among the top numbers in the league, he hasn’t reached the top spot of the ranking list since the 2017-2018 season.

But, as we know, he finished the recently concluded regular season in second, so it won’t be too hard to guess who’s heading into the playoffs in the top spot.
