With most teams having played 8–9 games in this year’s regular season—giving us a first… taste and a glimpse of what the 30 franchises are capable of—the NBA has released its first MVP Ladder!

At the top of the list is Luka Dončić, with the Slovenian superstar of the Lakers off to a legendary start to the season, averaging 38.5 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 8 assists per game!

At No. 2, we find yet another European, as Victor Wembanyama sits right behind “Luka Magic,” leading the San Antonio Spurs with 29 points, 12.4 rebounds, and 4.5 blocks per game! Rounding out the top three is the reigning MVP, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder (30.1 pts., 4.5 ast., 4.3 reb.).

Beyond that, Tyrese Maxey is No. 4, Jayson Tatum is No. 5, and Alperen Sengun is No. 6, with Steph Curry… underrated and ranked No. 7, despite putting up incredible numbers so far this season (29.9 ppg, 4.5 apg, 3.7 rpg).

As for Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Greek superstar is 8th on the list, as despite averaging 27.3 points, 12.7 rebounds, and 5.6 assists per game, Miami sits at 3-6.

Cooper Flagg and Nikola Jokić round out the top ten.
