Blake Griffin, who will join Prime Video next season to serve as an NBA analyst, weighed in on the 2025-26 MVP race. On the “Post Moves” podcast hosted by Candace Parker and Aliyah Boston, Griffin predicted Giannis Antetokounmpo to bag his third Michael Jordan Trophy. The Bucks’ lack of legitimate star power behind Antetokounmpo and the weakened East were reasons Griffin predicted another MVP for Giannis.“You know what, I’m gonna go Giannis [Antetokounmpo] with MVP. His team can still be top 4 in the East. I also think without sort of help that he’s had around him, he’s gonna be playing close to 40 minutes a night, and I think he’s gonna accept that challenge. … He’s gonna put up ungodly numbers, so I’ll go with him.”Luka Doncic and Giannis Antetokounmpo, who signed a three-year, $175,369,698 deal with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2023, are perennial MVP contenders. While the "Greek Freak" has already won the award twice (2019 and 2020), Doncic is still looking for his first.Last season, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander broke through the competition and beat Nikola Jokic for his first MVP award. Giannis Antetokounmpo finished a distant third while Doncic’s injury-plagued season kept him out of the top 10. The Slovenian, who has improved his conditioning in the offseason, could challenge for the award if he stays healthy.Blake Griffin opens up about his “Welcome to the NBA” momentBlake Griffin did not just answer questions about today’s NBA. The six-time All-Star also opened up about playing against some of the best players in history.The former LA Clippers star had this to say when asked by Candace Parker about his “Welcome to the NBA” moment:“I think it was definitely playing against Tim Duncan for the first time. He’s on the block. I’m next to him. He kinda like bent over, and he looked over, and he goes, rolls over his eyes, and like, ‘Not you again.’ I was like, ‘That was awesome, that was pretty cool.’ Like, Tim Duncan just joked with me.”Griffin added that he was frustrated because the San Antonio Spurs legend, who was so nice, “cooked” him.
