NBA to name Bubble MVP of seeding games, all-bubble team

There will be a NBA Bubble MVP. The league declared that there will be an All-Seeding Games Team and a Player of the Seeding Games, respecting the best performers from the seeding games that began July 30 and will finish up Friday.

The awards will be reported Saturday afternoon, before Game 1 of the Western Conference play-in series.

A panel of sportswriters and broadcasters who have been on-site at the Walt Disney World Resort covering the season restart will decide in favor of the award champs. There will be a five-player first team and a five-player second team, without any breakdowns by position.

Top applicants would probably incorporate Phoenix’s Devin Booker, Dallas’ Luka Doncic, Portland’s Damian Lillard, Houston’s James Harden, Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo and Indiana’s T.J. Warren.
