LeBron James โ NBA MVP (+3500)
The greatest of his generation and arguably all-time, LBJ is the most consistent statistical player in NBA history — bar none. For 20 years, we have witnessed LeBron average 27.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 7.3 assists, and last year was no different with 29-8.3-6.8.
As the oldest player in the NBA, one might think James is getting ready to ride off into the sunset ๐ with his 4 MVPs and championship rings. But thatโs not what the great ones do when they lace it up. Did you think Tiger Woods could win The Masters in 2019? Never underestimate the power of greatness, and remember, this award is decided by a vote from the media. No one could write a better story than Los Angeles winning the West led by the King ๐.
This is worth a flyer if only for one reason: No other playerโs MVP odds could possibly plummet from a +3500 longshot to single digits faster than the publicly backed Lakers leader.
