As the core of the top favorite team, Jokic is naturally the leading candidate for MVP. The top 8 players are all strong NBA competitors, especially the international stars who have recently contended for the regular season MVP, including Jokic, Giannis, and Doncic, making this EuroBasket highly exciting.
