In the 2021-22 regular season, Stephen Curry averaged 25.5 points, 5.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game with the Warriors. While he did not surpass his career-high 32 points per game from last season, he still quietly led Golden State to yet another NBA Finals appearance.

In addition to being named Finals MVP, Curry was named to the All-NBA Second Team, he won All-Star Game MVP and he won his fourth championship. Will he earn his second career NBA 2K cover? Yes, it will likely happen. Place your bets below.

Equally important, Curry is one of the most consistent players in the league. He won the league’s first Western Conference Finals MVP after averaging 23.8 points and 6.6 rebounds versus the Mavericks.

In Game 4 of the Warriors’ second-round playoff series, the 14-year veteran became the first player to make 500 career 3-pointers in the postseason. Plus, against the Celtics, the guard became the first player to make five or more 3-pointers in four straight NBA Finals games.

Ja Morant (+125) at BetOnline

The fourth-year player averaged 27.4 points per game in the playoffs last season. If not Curry, Morant is another noteworthy candidate.

Jayson Tatum (+400) at BetOnline

His outstanding performances in the regular season led to him qualifying for All-NBA First Team for the first time of his professional playing career. After averaging 25 points, 8.3 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game versus the Heat, Tatum went on to win the league’s first Eastern Conference Finals MVP award as well.

Unfortunately, Tatum finished his playoff run with the most turnovers ever in NBA playoffs history (100). His odds of winning NBA 2K23 cover athlete are slim right now.
