2021 NBA Finals MVP odds: KD leads Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James

Share

With the NBA season complete and fans turning their attention to the playoffs, it's fair to wonder who might be crowned NBA Finals MVP, and perhaps place a bet.

The top teams will battle it out in the playoffs, beginning with the Play-In Tournament, which starts today. Among teams in the Play-In Tournament, Jayson Tatum, Steph Curry, LeBron James and Anthony Davis are on the top 30 list of odds to make it all the way to the Finals and win MVP. 

LeBron sits at +600 odds to win Finals MVP despite the Lakers' tough road to the Finals. If he were to win his fifth Finals MVP, LeBron would have to lead the Lakers through the Play-In Tournament and a first-round series versus a No. 1 or No. 2 seed. Michael Jordan holds the record as a six-time Final MVP winner, but a Finals run from LeBron and the Lakers would be unprecedented this season.
