Editing Most valuable player (section)

===Basketball===

In the [[NBA]], the protocol for selecting [[NBA Most Valuable Player Award|the MVP]] has shifted throughout the year. Through the 1979–80 season, the basketball players themselves comprised the MVP voting bloc up. Since the start of the 1980 NBA season, a panel of broadcasters and sportswriters are brought together to vote on the MVP award. Every person on the panel casts a vote for their first-place selection all the way to their fifth. A first-place vote nets a player 10 points while a second is worth seven, a third worth five, a fourth worth three, and a fifth worth one. At the end of the voting, the player with the most overall points wins the award.<ref>{{cite web |date=March 31, 2022 |title=How Is the NBA MVP Decided? |website=Basketball Noise |url=https://basketballnoise.com/how-is-the-nba-mvp-decided/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220827055826/https://basketballnoise.com/how-is-the-nba-mvp-decided/ |archive-date=2022-08-27 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Corvo |first=M. |date=June 14, 2021 |title=How voting is done for the NBA MVP and its evolution |website=ClutchPoints |url=https://clutchpoints.com/how-voting-is-done-for-the-nba-mvp-and-its-evolution/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220827055826/https://clutchpoints.com/how-voting-is-done-for-the-nba-mvp-and-its-evolution/ |archive-date=2022-08-27 }}</ref> The current MVP is [[Nikola Jokić]] from the [[Denver Nuggets]].
