NBA Finals MVPs

Since the NBA Finals began in 1947, there have been 71 MVPs awarded to 54 different players. Below is a complete list of every NBA Finals MVP.

Bob Pettit was the first ever Finals MVP, winning the award in 1958 after leading the St. Louis Hawks to victory over the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. Pettit averaged a double-double in the series, putting up 27.7 points and 16 rebounds per game. Bill Russell would go on to win the first of his record 11 NBA championships in the very next year, but it would be Pettit who would take home Finals MVP honors in that series as well, averaging 24.6 points and 17 rebounds per game as the Hawks once again knocked off the Celtics.

After Pettit won back-to-back Finals MVPs, it would be nearly a decade before another player won multiple times. That player was Willis Reed, who took home the award in 1970 and 1973 after leading the New York Knicks to victory over the Los Angeles Lakers and then-defending champion Milwaukee Bucks, respectively. In 1970, Reed famously played through injury to lead the Knicks to a Game 7 win, putting up a team-high 21 points en route to being named Finals MVP. Three years later, Reed averaged 18 points and 12 rebounds per game as he helped New York repeat as champions.

It took until 1980 for another player to win back-to-back Finals MVPs, when Magic Johnson became just the third player in history to do so after leading the Lakers to wins over Julius Erving’s Philadelphia 76ers in 1980 and 1981 AND Larry Bird’s Celtics in 1982. Johnson is also one of only two players ever to win Finals MVP as a rookie (joining Bill Russell), doing so after averaging 18 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds per game against Dr. J and company in 1980. During his three-peat from 2000 to 2002, Shaquille O’Neal became just the fourth player ever to win back-to-back-to-back Finals MVPs, joining Johnson, Pettit and Russell as members of that select group.

Michael Jordan is far and away the leader when it comes to Finals MVPs, winning six times during his Hall of Fame career (1991-93 with Chicago and 1996-98 with Utah). Jordan’s co-stars Scottie Pippen (1997) and Dennis Rodman (1996) are also among those who have won multiple times, as each played an integral role on some of Jordan’s championship teams with the Bulls. Other notable multiple winners include Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1971 & 1985), LeBron James (2012 & 2013) and Tim Duncan (1999 & 2003).
