Regular-season MVP 2025-26 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Thunder: -5000 (bet $10 to win $10.20 total) What to know: SGA is second in the NBA in scoring (31.1), and his Thunder have the best record in the NBA (64-16). He is also in the midst of a remarkable streak of 140 consecutive 20-point games, the most in NBA history. The Thunder have also clinched the No. 1 overall seed throughout the postseason. Victor Wembanyama, Spurs: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total) What to know: Wemby leads the NBA in blocks per game (3.1) and should win Defensive Player of the Year — but will he qualify for any awards? He’s played 63 games, the Spurs have two games left, and they already have the 2-seed in the West clinched, meaning he could rest the final two games of the season. However, if he does, he won’t reach the 65-game mark, meaning he won’t be eligible for any NBA accolades. Nikola Jokić, Nuggets: +6000 (bet $10 to win $610 total) What to know: No player in NBA history has led the league in assists and rebounds in separate seasons. The Joker is going to lead the NBA in both in the same season. If not for a 16-game absence due to injury, the Nuggets’ superstar might be staring at his fourth MVP. However, it appears it wasn’t meant to be.
