By 2028, what players do you think will be MVP? I see Luka winning one or 2, he’ll win one pretty easily but the 2nd one depends on the team record and if he has the #1 record and great stats he’ll win a couple. I think SGA or Trae might win one depending on their record and tbh I think Trae has what it takes to lead the league in points and assists the same year and if he does he deserves an mvp. SGA or Tatum could get one simply because of their team record. A super dark house player I see winning an mvp is Zion but that solely depends on his health but if he can stay healthy for 65 games and he a point forward he can win one. What do you guys think?

It’s also a situation where if Luka retired tomorrow, some people are arguing he’s already a Hall of Famer based solely on his European league career.

His NBA legacy isn’t solidified yet but he’s in the conversation for an MVP and I think he has enough raw ability to be the top guy on a championship team.

But if he retired tomorrow, he has an arguable hall of fame career at age twenty-five. How rare is that? He probably wouldn’t be considered an all-time great but his overall career including Europe is above-average even without individual NBA accolades. He’s already been named Euroleague MVP and that’s pretty much unanimously the second-best league in the world.

He won’t be a Jordan or LeBron level GOAT contender but if he can get over the hump, he could very well have an outstanding basketball legacy.
