Could the superstar take home his first ESPY award?

After losing in the NBA Finals more than a week ago, the Dallas Mavericks are gearing up for free agency and the

NBA Draft. Despite his incredible stats, their major player Luka Doncic was not awarded MVP, but he still has a

chance to earn some season-long hardware.

Doncic has been nominated for the 2024 ESPYs, an ESPN award presentation, NBA’s Best Player of the Year.

Nikola Jokic of Denver, Jayson Tatum of Boston, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of Oklahoma City are the other

nominees.

Even though Jokic won MVP this year, Giannis Antetokounmpo’s first MVP victory in 2019 was the last time the

MVP winner has received the ESPY for NBA’s Best Player.

Since Jaylen Brown wasn’t nominated this year and has won the last two ESPY awards for Finals MVP, it’s unlikely

that Jayson Tatum will win.

Doncic led the Mavericks into the Finals before losing to the Boston Celtics, averaging 33.9 points, 9.8 rebounds,

and 9.2 assists per game throughout the regular season. He was the greatest player throughout the postseason

despite battling injuries, and he ought to have placed higher than third on the MVP vote.

The Slovenian superstar has five times been named to the All-NBA First Team and has won numerous other awards,

including NBA Rookie of the Year and MVP of the EuroLeague. However, he has never taken home an ESPY.

The 2024 ESPY Awards are scheduled to air on ABC on July 11 at 7 p.m. CST.
