Sixers coach Doc Rivers said the “MVP race is over” after Joel Embiid led Philly to a massive win over the Celtics last night. Here’s what our odds say, along with trader Spencer Fitzroy.
Yesterday: Embiid -250, Jokic +225, Giannis +550
Current: Embiid -550, Giannis +600, Jokic +650
ASK THE TRADER: “The fact that Jokic played just about his worst game of the season (while losing to the 19-60 Rockets) on the same night Embiid dropped 52 was equally important in deciding the MVP race. Both performances will be fresh in voters’ minds, and it’s hard to see Jokic and Giannis overcoming this deficit with so few games remaining.”
