Top 2018 NBA MVP Candidates

Russell Westbrook won the 2017 NBA MVP award Monday night after becoming the first player in 55 years to average a triple-double for the entire season. The Oklahoma City Thunder point guard has a good chance to defend his crown in the 2017-2018 season, though he'll have plenty of competition. After LeBron James and Kevin Durant went toe-to-toe in the 2017 NBA Finals, the best players on the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors are almost certain to be in the mix for the award.
