Suspense is revealed! Alexander is elected as MVP! All teammates are given a Rolex!

On May 22, 2025, the NBA officially announced the 2024-25 regular season MVP winner, from the Oklahoma City Thunder star Alexander.

According to reporters, Alexander won 71 first votes out of 100 votes, with a total score of 913 points, defeating his opponents Jokic and Antetokounmpo, becoming the third player in the history of the Thunder to win the MVP after Durant and Westbrook.

Of course, this result is not surprising. A few hours before the official announcement of the MVP, the NBA famous reporter Shams spoiled the results in advance. But even so, it is still worth celebrating when this moment really appears. Facing the live interview with TNT, Alexander said:

"As a child who dreamed of entering the NBA when he was a child, the word MVP has been flashing in my mind. Now, I have really realized this dream."

Not long after the MVP winner was announced, Thunder teammate Jerin Williams posted a picture on social media:

Alexander prepared a Rolex watch for each teammate. Each watch has a different style, which seems particularly attentive. It is said that this wave of watch gifts cost more than millions of dollars. Although this expense is nothing for Alexander, who has an annual salary of 34.51 million yuan, the sincerity conveyed far exceeds the money itself.

It is worth mentioning that since Antetokounmpo won the MVP in 2019, non-local American players have won this award for seven consecutive seasons. From Antetokounmpo to Jokic, and now Alexander, this globalization trend makes people sigh that the NBA is really becoming more and more international.

In the playoffs this season, Alexander led the team to sweep the Grizzlies to advance in the first round, and defeated the Nuggets in seven games in the Western Conference semi-finals. The eliminated Nuggets are also generous enough. The team official sent their blessings on social media:

"From one MVP to another, congratulations to Alexander."

This wave of blessings is both demeanor and a kind of inheritance.

Alexander's goal is more than that. He has emphasized in interviews many times that personal honor is precious, but if the team cannot lead the team to win the championship, everything will eventually lose its meaning.

Now Alexander is leading the Thunder to continue to strive for higher goals in the playoffs. He also has the opportunity to compete in the historical record of double MVP in the regular season + Finals, which is also an achievement that no one has achieved since James in the 2012-13 season. Since Curry in the 2014-15 season, no regular season MVP has been able to successfully win the championship that year. These are the achievements Alexander can reach this season.

From the perspective of fans, we naturally hope that Alexander can break this curse. As for where the end point will eventually be, we will wait and see.
