A lot of NBA fans have been holding an NBA MVP debate — Nuggets center Nikola Jokic or 76ers center Joel Embiid?
Embiid has even seemingly been campaigning for the award.
But there’s a third name a lot of people seem to be forgetting. And that would be no less than Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo.
It’s hard to believe that Antetokounmpo isn’t mentioned, constantly, alongside the likes of Jokic and Embiid. People outside of Milwaukee seem to be overlooking him.
But the reality is, Antetokounmpo has perhaps been better than ever. Yes, better than even when he won his two previous MVPs (2019 and 2020), better than the season in which he led the Bucks to the championship (2021).
