🏆 NBA Awards 2025-26

🏆 MVP

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

31.2 PPG. Best record in basketball. The Thunder are his team and the league is his playground.

📈 Most Improved Player

Cade Cunningham

From 22 PPG to 28 PPG. Detroit is finally fun to watch. Cunningham is an All-Star.

🛡️ Defensive Player of the Year

Victor Wembanyama

3.8 blocks per game at 7'4". He changes shots, blocks shots, and makes opponents rethink their entire offensive gameplan.

🌟 Rookie of the Year

Zaccharie Risacher

The #1 pick delivering immediately. 15 PPG and elite defense for Atlanta. Franchise cornerstone.

📉 Biggest Disappointment

Phoenix Suns

Three max players. First-round exit. The Beal trade might be the worst in recent NBA history.

🎯 Coach of the Year

Mark Daigneault (OKC)

Best record in basketball with the youngest core. Developed SGA, Chet, and Dort into a juggernaut.
