Who's the actual MVP?
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokić are having 2 of the best seasons in NBA history, at the same time.
SGA may be the Vegas favorite to win MVP, but Joker is quietly having a career season himself.
MVP Odds (BetMGM): 🏆 SGA: -700 🏆 Jokic: +425
SGA is the league-leader in scoring, and Oklahoma City Thunder has the best record in the West.
However, Jokic is leading almost every other category, some by wide margins.
🔸 Jokic: 32.3 PER (2nd-highest in history) 🔸 SGA: 31.1 PER
🔸 SGA: 32.8 PTS (1st) 🔸 Jokic: 28.8 PTS (3rd)
🔸 Jokic: 12.8 REB (3rd) 🔸 SGA: 5.1 REB (74th)
🔸 Jokic: 10.4 AST (2nd) 🔸 SGA: 6.2 AST (15th)
🔸 SGA: 1.8 STL (2nd) 🔸 Jokic: 1.8 STL (2nd)
🔸 Jokic: 28 triple-doubles (1st) 🔸 SGA: 0
This last month of the season may decide it.
