Okay, so today I decided to dive into the world of Summer League MVP odds. It’s something I’ve been curious about, and with the games heating up, I figured it was time to get my hands dirty.

First, I needed to find a place that actually listed these odds. I started with my usual sports betting sites, but honestly, it was a bit of a maze. Some had odds for regular season stuff, but finding Summer League specific bets? Tougher than I thought.
I spent a good hour just clicking around, getting increasingly frustrated. It felt like searching for a needle in a haystack, except the haystack was made of pop-up ads and confusing layouts.
Then, I remembered some folks talking about more niche betting sites in a forum I sometimes check. I headed over there and, bingo! A couple of sites I’d never heard of actually had Summer League MVP odds listed.
Now came the fun part – actually looking at the odds. I grabbed a pen and paper (yeah, I’m old school like that) and started jotting down the names and numbers. It was a mix of guys I recognized from college ball and some complete unknowns.
- Chet Holmgren: Dude was near the top on most sites.
- Keegan Murray: Another popular favorite.
- Jabari Smith Jr.: Saw his name popping up a lot too.
After making the notes, I took a long time to consider each player’s performance data in the game, and finally, I made my decision.

I spent the next hour or so cross-referencing the odds with some recent game stats and player news. Trying to get a feel for who was actually performing well and who might be overhyped.
Honestly, it was a bit overwhelming. So much data, so many opinions. It felt like I was drinking from a firehose of basketball information.
By the end of it, I didn’t actually place any bets. Instead, I just ended up with a messy page of notes and a slightly better understanding of the Summer League landscape.

My final thought on my first try: Maybe I’ll stick to watching the games for now. It’s probably more fun than getting lost in a sea of numbers. Still, it was a good learning experience, and I can put this knowledge to use sometime.
