As Mavs coach Jason Kidd and sports pundits debate the talent hierarchy of the Boston Celtics, the team’s lone champion is seemingly in the running for NBA Finals MVP.

Jrue Holiday began the series as a +6500 longshot but is now the fourth favorite with +750 odds at DraftKings.

Holiday posted a team-high 26 points on 11-14 shooting in a Game 2 win that gave Boston a 2-0 series lead. He also 19 rebounds in the first two games.

Jayson Tatum is the +125 Finals MVP favorite, while Jaylen Brown has +175 odds. Luka Doncic is the third favorite with +600 odds.
