The person accepting praise may be remembering help the audience cannot see.

Praise lands on one person and the person receiving it often knows exactly how inaccurate that is. Standing there, they are thinking of the colleague who fixed the thing at midnight, the partner who took the weekends, the teacher who said one sentence years ago that changed the direction. None of this shows in the photograph. The gap between what is applauded and what actually happened is usually widest in the mind of the one being applauded.

When credit comes to you, name one person out loud in the moment. And when you applaud someone, ask afterwards who else was in it.
