2024 NBA playoff odds: Jayson Tatum favored for Finals MVP; Jokic chasing
The NBA postseason is well underway, and fans are diving into the MVP betting markets.
Currently, Boston's Jayson Tatum is the betting favorite to be named Finals MVP at +135.
Tatum is also at the top of the oddsboard to be named Eastern Conference Finals MVP at -190. His teammate Jaylen Brown is sitting second at +600.
In the West, Denver's Nikola Jokic was the favorite to be named Western Conference Finals MVP but stumbled once his Nuggets went down 2-0 in their Western Conference semifinals matchup with Minnesota.
However, Denver has since bounced back and taken a 3-2 lead in that series.
Will the three-time league MVP be able to complete the comeback and come one step closer to adding more hardware to the trophy case?
