The NBA Cup MVP odds are becoming a hot topic, with the In-Season Tournament now finished the round-robin stage — and into the knockout round.
A trio of high-scoring guards highlight the current odds board, unsurprisingly coordinating with teams that have the shortest NBA Cup odds.

NBA Cup MVP betting analysis
The two highest-scoring guards through Group play are 1-2 on the NBA Cup MVP odds board, as the Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (30.5 ppg) and Dallas' Luka Doncic (31.3 ppg) are the favorites.
Unfortunately, they go head-to-head in the quarterfinals, so only one can advance, so we could see more movement from Jalen Brunson — who is leading the NBA Cup favorite Knicks in scoring through the IST and has the best QF matchup in Atlanta — along with Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo and Magic leading scorer Franz Wagner (who also face off in the quarters).
There's also Warriors star Stephen Curry, who averaged a modest 23.3 ppg through round-robin play... but always seems to go off in the biggest moments.

Understanding NBA Cup MVP odds
Sportsbooks posted odds for the NBA Cup MVP award at the beginning of the season in October. These odds have been adjusted throughout the season to reflect variables like strong play, steady improvement, and injuries. Sportsbooks have also adjusted the odds based on handle and liability to certain players.
NBA Cup MVP odds usually look like this:
- Jalen Brunson +600
This means that on a $100 bet, you'll stand to win $600 if Brunson wins the tournament MVP award. If it's close to the end of the tournament and the NBA has a particularly dominant player on an especially dominant team, you might see a minus sign (-) ahead of its odds. For instance:
- Stephen Curry -180
This means you have to bet $180 to win $100 on Tatum winning the honor.
