LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Giannis Antetokounmpo and James Harden are the four players who Vegas oddsmakers say have a better chance than Leonard to be crowned the 2018-19 NBA Most Valuable Player.
Make no mistake, Kawhi Leonard is an established NBA superstar. In his now seven year career, Leonard already has several career-defining accolades on his resume, all the while still being 27 years old. An NBA champion, NBA finals MVP and two-time All-NBA first teamer, Kawhi is widely regarded as one of the top 10 players in the entire league. Moreover, as a three-time member of the NBA All-Defensive first team, Leonard has proven to be a consistent factor on both sides of the floor.
