Luka Doncic is once again playing like a true MVP candidate. If the Mavs make it to the Playoffs this year and Rick Carlisle’s team is playing with the attacking flair they are cable of, it’ll tee up Luka for the award in 2022. He has quickly established himself as one of the best players in the league and continues to impress. Luka is ahead as the number one favorite at 5.00 across most major bookmakers.
You’re not given the nickname ‘The Greek Freak’ without being an absolute monster on the court. For Milwaukee Bucks big man Giannis Antetokounmpo, he’s handled the majority of his competition with ease. Two seasons ago, he was named MVP after averaging 29.5 points and 13.6 rebounds per game.
Yup, that will most certainly get the job done. Now, he’s once again off to a hot start for the Bucks and is the favourite to win MVP. He holds the fourth-highest NBA MVP odds at 9.00. He’s not the only one in the running, though, to finish the season as the best NBA player.
