2026 NBA MVP Rankings Update (March)

Send us Fan Mail

I update my NBA MVP rankings based on games played, win shares, team record, and the 65-game threshold that can erase even elite seasons. I make the case for SGA at No. 1 while still wrestling with Jalen Brown’s team context and the chaos created by injuries.
• Removing Cade Cunningham and Victor Wembanyama due to the 65-game threshold
• Adding Knicks candidates and reshaping the full ladder
• wWeighing defense and secondary scoring with Chet Holmgren
• Comparing Jalen Brunson’s lead-guard load with Karl-Anthony Towns’ efficiency
• Rewarding Jamal Murray’s production when Jokic sits
• Boosting Tyrese Maxey for carrying a shorthanded roster
• Dropping Nikola Jokic because eligibility risk outweighs stat dominance
• Slotting Kevin Durant high on near 50-40-90 efficiency
• Pushing Anthony Edwards into the top five for winning impact
• Making the bold Jalen Duren top-four argument through win shares and team rank
• Elevating Luka Doncic with usage and a team surge
• Deciding SGA over Jalen Brown using two-way win shares and efficiency
