From MVP candidates to rising stars, the anticipation is high to see who will come out on top this year. Our expert panel, consisting of more than 200 reporters, editors, producers, and analysts, has cast their votes to determine the rankings based on each player’s predicted contributions for the 2022-23 season.
No. 5: Stephen Curry
Starting off at number five is none other than Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors. Curry proved himself as one of the all-time greats by leading the Warriors to their fourth title in six years and earning the elusive Finals MVP award. He is looking in top shape and ready to continue his dominance on the court.
No. 4: Joel Embiid
In the fourth spot, we have Joel Embiid from the Philadelphia 76ers. After two narrow finishes in MVP voting, Embiid is a favorite to claim the award this season. He showcased his dominance last year, leading the league in scoring and proving to be a force to be reckoned with on both ends of the court.
No. 3: Luka Doncic
At number three, we have Luka Doncic representing the Dallas Mavericks. Doncic has established himself as one of the league’s top superstars, consistently delivering outstanding performances. With his return from offseason duties with the Slovenian national team, he is expected to be in peak form and ready to lead his team to new heights.
No. 2: Nikola Jokic
The second spot goes to Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets. Coming off back-to-back MVP awards, Jokic has solidified his status as one of the league’s best players. With the return of key teammates like Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr., Jokic and the Nuggets are looking to make a strong comeback and contend for the championship.
No. 1: Giannis Antetokounmpo
And finally, claiming the number one spot is Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks. With his list of accolades already making him one of the most decorated winners in league history, Antetokounmpo’s dominance and impact on both ends of the floor are undeniable. As he enters his age-28 season, fans are eager to see how he will continue to elevate his game and lead the Bucks to success.
