The NBA’s MVP race is over. So is the battle for every other individual regular-season trophy.
The league told teams Friday that none of the seeding games will be taken into consideration for any postseason award, and that voting for those honors – such as All-NBA, rookie of the year and defensive player of the year – will be completed before the July 30 restart of the season at Walt Disney World.
Typically, those votes are cast closer to the end of the regular season. So the postseason races are still going in many cases, but the individual award chases are now complete.
