The NBA Finals are right around the corner and there are only four teams left fighting for their spot in the series.
In the end, one team will reign supreme and their best player will be named Finals MVP.
According to Bovada, via NBACentral, Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics still has the best odds to win this year’s Finals MVP.
He has +115 odds, followed by Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves with +250.
They are followed by Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks and Jaylen Brown and Derrick White, both of the Celtics.

This list shows that most people still believe the Celtics will go to the Finals and win it all.
Of course, this isn’t surprising because they have been the favorites to do this all season.
If the Celtics can win their first championship in years, it’ll likely be because Tatum has a great series and is looking like the team leader he is supposed to be.
The pressure was already on Tatum and his team but his odds of winning Finals MVP only adds more.
After their win over the Denver Nuggets, the Minnesota Timberwolves have a much better chance of reaching the Finals.
There is no doubt that if they win a title, Edwards will be the one to claim Finals MVP.
He has been sensational throughout most of the playoffs and has become the face of the Timberwolves during their stellar postseason run.
This list of Finals MVP contenders gives a good look at the state of the NBA with just a few weeks left.
Will Tatum, Edwards, or someone else claim this highly coveted prize in June?
