Most people accept that the Spurs are further along than they thought they'd be. The word "contender" has been thrown about, but it still feels like most of them believe San Antonio is a long shot. Vegas isn't on the same page. Victor Wembanyama has the fourth-highest odds to win MVP of the NBA Finals, according to FanDuel.
FanDuel's NBA Finals MVP odds
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (+115)
Nikola Jokic (+900)
Jalen Brunson (+1500)
Victor Wembanyama (+1600)
This is going to come across as mean, but putting Jalen Brunson on this list implies the Knicks have a chance to win the championship.
