The Milwaukee Bucks enter the NBA Finals with their star Giannis Antetokounmpo dealing with a knee injury. He is reportedly “day-to-day” according to the team, so the Bucks are hopeful he can play the Finals in some capacity. Here’s the Finals MVP odds for Bucks players courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.
2021 NBA Finals MVP odds: Bucks
Giannis Antetokounmpo: +380
Khris Middleton: +550
Jrue Holiday: +1600
Brook Lopez: +15000
P.J. Tucker: +20000
Our pick: Khris Middleton +550
Antetokounmpo may not play every game in the series and even if he does, the Bucks are relying more on Middleton to be the closer. The shooting guard is putting up great numbers this postseason with 23.4 points, 5.1 assists and 8.0 rebounds per game. He’ll need to step up in the event Antetokounmpo misses time and is the best value pick on the board.
