From Dirk Nowitzki to Giannis Antetokounmpo, Luka Doncic to the late Drazen Petrovic – Europeans have always had an influence and that is truer than ever now.
The last three NBA MVP awards have been awarded to Europeans with Antetokounmpo winning in 2019 and 2020 before Nikola Jokic took the honours last season.
Both men are in the top three of the latest NBA MVP ladder this year as well, as the race comes down to the final couple of weeks of the season.
Vote for your top NBA European players of all-time!
Doncic is also in the top five and is the youngest member of that quintet, asserting that he can very much be a contender for the award for a decade and more to come.
