Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports - 20559480For the first time in his two-decade long career, LeBron James didn’t receive an MVP vote.
Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid was named the NBA MVP on Tuesday night, edging out two-time reigning MVP Nikola Jokic and Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo for the league’s most coveted award. Embiid ran away with the award, too, earning 73 first place votes while Jokic and Antetokounmpo picked up 15 and 12, respectively.
James, however, was left off the list completely. For the first time in his 20 seasons in the league, the Los Angeles Lakers star didn’t earn a single vote. Of the 100 people who filled out a ballot for the award, it’s not out of the question that James could snag at least one vote. Both Knicks guard Jalen Brunson and Grizzlies star Jalen Brunson received a single fifth-place vote, and Kings star De’Aaron Fox received two.
