In the third edition of the NBA MVP straw poll — which asks 100 media members, at least two from all 28 markets, to vote for a winner — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander received some love.
The Oklahoma City Thunder star finished sixth in MVP voting, with 26 total votes — three fourth-place votes and 23 fifth-place votes. This resulted in 32 combined points in ESPN’s Tim Bontemps’ voting system.
