Warriors, Cavs dominate top-selling jerseys
The Golden State Warriors now have five of the NBA's biggest jersey-movers on their roster.
The NBA released player and team merchandise rankings on Thursday for sales between April-June, and Stephen Curry topped the list of jersey sales, with Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Kevin Durant, and Andre Iguodala all cracking the top-15.
Durant's No. 8 ranking is based on his Oklahoma City Thunder jersey, although one would imagine his No. 35 Warriors jersey will quickly become a best-seller.
Along with Curry and Thompson (No. 5), LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Kyrie Irving round out the top-five.
In terms of team merchandise, the newly crowned champions reign supreme, as the Cleveland Cavaliers moved more merchandise over the last three months on NBAStore.com than any other franchise. The Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Chicago Bulls, and Thunder also ranked in the top-5, though it's fair to wonder how much longer the Thunder will retain such strong sales.
