Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is reported to win his second consecutive NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) award. Coverage from multiple outlets says he receives a dominant share of first-choice support in the voting process. The Japan Times reports he earns 83 first-choice votes from a ballot of roughly 100 NBA journalists and broadcasters covering the league in North America. Other reporting frames the achievement as part of a broader pattern for international players, noting that his back-to-back MVP selections contribute to what is described as a historic stretch in which non-American players have continued to win the award in successive years. Forbes similarly characterizes the result as an MVP repeat, confirming the “second straight” nature of the honor. While the sources differ slightly in emphasis—some focusing on vote totals and voting participants, others on the longer trend among international winners—they align on the core facts: Gilgeous-Alexander wins the MVP again, and it is his second consecutive year.
