This week’s NBA Finals will begin when the Dallas Mavericks travel to Boston to play the Celtics at TD Garden on Thursday. Fans can expect an exciting game between these two top teams, especially with four great players on display from the start.
As usual, the Finals will include an all-star lineup. This seven-game series will include players like Jayson Tatum, Luka Doncic, Jaylen Brown, and Kyrie Irving, all of whom are vying for the title of NBA Finals MVP before the first tip-off occurs on Thursday.
Naturally, as the two teams attempt to outsmart one another and exploit one other’s flaws and superstars begin to emerge, these odds for NBA Finals MVP will fluctuate during the series.
According to ESPN BET, Tatum is presently leading the odds for Finals MVP (-120) before Game 1 starts this week. Doncic is right behind him at (+200), followed by Brown (+650) and Irving (+1400).
While it is usually given to the top player of the winning squad—in this case, either Tatum or Doncic—this honor can sometimes occasionally go to a player who routinely makes big plays or shows that he is the difference maker, as was the case with Andre Iguodala of the Golden State Warriors a few years ago.
Nevertheless, it’s not impossible that, in the end, Brown, Irving, or a different player like Jrue Holiday will win the NBA Finals MVP award.
