For the first time in “Dancing With the Stars” history, a former NBA player is taking home the mirror ball trophy.
According to ABC News and ESPN, ex-Cleveland Cavaliers guard Iman Shumpert and dance pro Daniella Karagach logged two perfect scores in Monday’s Season 30 finale to win the competition, topping second-place finishers JoJo Siwa and Jenna Johnson; Cody Rigsby and Cheryl Burke, who took third place; and fourth-place finishers Amanda Kloots and Alan Bersten.
