Topeka, KS, October 18, 2026 —
Oklahoma City’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is drawing attention because of the possibility that he could become one of the few players in NBA history to win three consecutive Most Valuable Player awards.
The trend centers on a potential achievement, not a confirmed outcome. The information provided does not say whether Gilgeous-Alexander has won the award, whether he is currently a finalist or how the MVP selection process stands. It also does not include statistics, voting details or a timeline for a decision.
The possibility is notable in the context given: three consecutive MVP awards would place a player among a small group in NBA history. However, no names or number of players in that group were provided, so the extent of the historical comparison cannot be further specified here.
The information identifies Gilgeous-Alexander with Oklahoma City but does not provide additional details about his team, season performance or circumstances behind the current attention. It also does not say who, if anyone, has made a prediction about his chances. Accordingly, the trend can be described only as interest in the possibility of a rare consecutive-award achievement.
Whether that possibility becomes an award result remains unspecified. No final vote, announcement or subsequent development was included in the trend summary. For now, the reported point is that Gilgeous-Alexander is trending amid discussion of a potential third straight MVP and the prospect of joining a select group in NBA history.
