Jayson Tatum, the lone opponent for the fourth MVP for Jokic

On By Littum

When life’s great goal is reached at 26, it is necessary to face new challenges in addition to confirming the glory. Jayson Tatum has always put collective good before personal success, but this year he seems to have found the formula to shine individually without compromising the chances of success for Boston Celtics. This makes him the only strong challenger to Nikola Jokic in the battle for MVP.

As impressive as it may seem to believe that a player can win MVP four times it seems almost utopian to consider a name other than that Nikola Jokic. The Serbian averages a triple-double and shows clear superiority over his rivals, and his level of play is fantastic. The only one who seems to overshadow him from now until the end of the season is Jayson Tatumwhose drive for redemption and desire for revenge understated last season, especially in the Olympic event, is his main drive.

The Boston Celtics the player is having a great season, leading the entire NBA in points and doing absolutely everything on the court without giving up defensive duties or assists. The greatness he shows makes him worthy of being a strong contender MVPbut he must await a drop in performance from Denver Nuggets‘ center or his team. If the Colorado team finishes outside the top six in the West and Jayson Tatum leads his Celtics to the upper ranks of the East, a legitimate debate about the price may arise.
