As the weeks pass, the more Shai Gilgeous-Alexander establishes himself as the favorite for the 2025 MVP title.
It must be said that in addition to prancing at the top of the Western Conference with OKC (27-5), he has had a string of great performances and, in December, for example, he averaged 33.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 2.5 interceptions. and 1.2 against average! All at 56% shooting, 37% from 3-point range and 91% from free throws, for 12 victories in 13 games (not counting the lost “NBA Cup” final).
Unsurprisingly, “SGA” was therefore chosen by the NBA as ” Player of the month » and it was already him who, in the West, had been detained in October/November. He is ahead of Deni Avdija, Shaedon Sharpe, Kyrie Irving, Jaren Jackson Jr, LeBron James, Nikola Jokić, Norman Powell, Alperen Sengun and Victor Wembanyama.
In the Eastern Conference, however, there is change and it is no longer Jayson Tatum but Karl-Anthony Towns who was chosen. This is thanks to his 23.2 points, 14.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.1 blocks over 13 games as well (for 12 victories). And 57% shooting, 39% 3-point shooting and 81% free throws.
Enough to be preferred to Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jalen Brunson, Tyrese Haliburton, Tyler Herro, Jalen Johnson and Trae Young, Tyrese Maxey as well as Donovan Mitchell.
