Recommended NBA Bets This Week

The 2024 NBA playoffs are still some ways of, and it’s still way too early to decide the potential winner.

Alongside placing NBA MVP odds, US players can find NBA title odds, player props, parlays, money lines, futures, spread, and totals.

Although Nikola Jokic was a favorite to be crowned the MVP for the 2023 season, the honor went to 76ers center Joel Embiid. But NBA betting sites provide odds for an array of markets other than the season MVP.

How Are NBA MVP Odds Calculated?

NBA MVP odds are calculated based on a variety of factors that sportsbooks consider. These include:

  1. Player Performance: Stats like points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, shooting percentages, and overall efficiency are crucial.

  2. Team Success: The MVP is usually awarded to a player from a team with a high winning percentage and a top seeding in their conference. The player's impact on their team's success is a significant factor.

  3. Narrative and Popularity: Sometimes, the story surrounding a player can influence MVP odds. A player making a significant comeback, breaking records, or leading a previously struggling team to success might get more favorable odds.

  4. Historical Precedent: Past MVP winners and their qualifications can set a benchmark for future candidates.

  5. Public Betting Trends: Odds are also influenced by how the public is betting. If a lot of money is being placed on a particular player, sportsbooks might adjust the odds to balance their risk.

  6. Expert Analysis: Opinions and analyses from basketball experts, insiders, and former players can influence how odds are set.
