Stars from all across the NBA are already off to hot starts on the hardwood. But, which players will be in the running late in the season to win the 2019-20 MVP Award? In previous years, stars like LeBron James, Kevin Durant, James Harden, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and more have taken home the honours.
Moving forward, you know there's going to be plenty of competition, as the best players in the league are always ready to battle it out for the top individual award there is.
The NBA betting odds will surely fluctuate as guys put together huge performances when the NBA restarts on July 30. So, who will be the NBA MVP?

James Harden and the Rockets have begun to play a lot better as we enter the latter stages of the regular season. Harden has been atop of the average points per game tables for the duration of the season. If he and fellow MVP Russell Westbrook carry on like this, they'll be real title contenders and Harden will be in with a good chance of winning the MVP title in 2020.
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. Last season, he was named MVP after averaging 27.7 points and 12.5 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 highest NBA MVP odds at 1.20. He's not the only one in the running, though, to finish the season as the best NBA player.
JAMES HARDEN 🔥

Not to be forgotten, Anthony Davis is in his first year with the Lakers and LeBron James. We obviously can't forget about Kawhi Leonard, who powered the Toronto Raptors to the NBA Finals title last year. Now that he's with the Clippers, fans in L.A. are hoping he can lead this team to a deep postseason run. Other players with decent odds include Luka Doncic, Anthony Davis and Kawhi Leonard. Harden was named MVP in 2018 after his brilliant campaign with the Houston Rockets. Now that he's got Russell Westbrook, who won MVP in 2017, by his side, big things are expected in Houston.
