Joel Embiid catches Nikola Jokic as favorite for NBA MVP

espn.com

The betting odds to win MVP of the NBA regular season moved dramatically this week at sportsbooks, with 76ers star Joel Embiid catching Denver's Nikola Jokic, the longtime favorite, in what's turning out to be a close race.

Embiid moved from a 2-1 underdog to an odds-on favorite Wednesday. Jokic had been the clear-cut favorite since Feb. 1 at sportsbooks and, earlier this week, was listed at short as -350 at Caesars Sportsbook.

The odds began to shift Tuesday, after the Nuggets lost at home to Brooklyn. By Thursday, Jokic and Embiid were co-favorites, each -105 at Caesars.

Embiid is the outright favorite at other sportsbooks, including DraftKings and PointsBet. Jokic's slide in the MVP odds coincides with the Nuggets' recent struggles.
