Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry has the most popular jersey in the NBA during the current season based on sales figures compiled by NBAstore.com. The Warriors No.30 jersey topped the list for the second season running, edging out LeBron’s iconic No.23 Lakers Nike Icon Swingman jersey which has been the biggest seller for eight seasons - and by far the biggest seller during the past six years.

Curry tops NBA jersey sales for second year in a row

Curry meanwhile has had the honor five times during his career - 2016, 2017, 2018, 2023 and 2024. The 36-year-old finished the 2023-4 regular season averaging 26.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 45 percent from the field - a slight dip on last year but while LeBron and the Lakers head into the playoffs, Steph and the Warriors failed to make it to the postseason after falling to the Kings in the play-in.
