NBA MVP Winners By Draft Positions: 39 Top-3 Picks Have Won The Award

The fact of the matter is that the higher the draft selection, the better chance you have at adding a superstar. Does that always mean that a top-3 draft pick will guarantee you a Hall of Famer? No, but with that said, if you look back on history, it certainly helps. Over time, 19 players taken in the first three selections have gone on to win MVP, while an additional nine players were taken in the top-15. Being considered a lottery pick has shown that there is a greater chance of being tabbed as the greatest in the league, but there are few outliers as well. Two players were taken between No. 15-30, while two more players were taken in the second round. Back in the old days, third-round picks were a thing, as well as territorial picks, which led to three more MVPs. For details click here: https://bit.ly/3ittkOi
