“I think Bron has solidified himself as the best player right now. Makes his team better. You take him off that Laker team, you see what happened last year. If you change roles, that’s how I look at the most valuable player.”
This statement reignites the debate whether LeBron should be awarded the MVP for this season, dethroning Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Lakers’ main man has been sensational this season, carrying the team with motivation and guiding them to the top of their conference table.

McCollum ranked Kawhi Leonard ahead of Giannis and didn’t expand on why he did so. Kawhi has not proven himself in the league as he led Toronto to their maiden NBA title last year, one to cherish for the Raptors fans.
As for Giannis Antetokounmpo, he has had a tremendous season with the Milwaukee Bucks so far, comfortably sitting atop the Eastern Conference table with the best record in the league. ‘The Greek Freak’ has been scarily good this season and would eye back-to-back MVP awards as it is in his DNA to win.
