Magic Johnson Lists His Top 5 MVP Candidates This Season: “Kevin Durant, Nikola Jokic…”
Several high-caliber NBA players are playing their way onto to the MVP ladder with their stellar level of play this year. While things could shake up later on, basketball pundits are already making their call for their top MVP candidates.
Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson, for instance, listed his top five MVP candidates on Twitter. Unsurprisingly, his list is bannered by none other than LeBron James who’s leading his team to the best record in the NBA so far this season.
“LeBron James, Joel Embiid, Kevin Durant, Nikola Jokić and Jaylen Brown are the top five MVP candidates right now,” Johnson tweeted.
