Nikola Jokic

Jokic capped off a dominant playoffs with a stellar showing in his Finals debut, averaging 30.2 points, 14 rebounds, and 7.2 assists. He's the first player ever to lead a single postseason in total points, rebounds, and assists.

I don't know if there's anyone who's ever had a statistical run in the NBA Finals as a center as he had in these categories.

Jamal Murray

Murray was more than a capable No. 2 option alongside Jokic. The Canadian led all players with 12 triples in the championship series and joined Magic Johnson as the only players in NBA history with 10 assists in each of the first four games of the Finals.

Aaron Gordon

Gordon came through in the Finals on both ends. He tallied a playoff career-high 27 points in the Nuggets' Game 4 win and kept Jimmy Butler in check for most of the series.

He does a lot of the dirty work for us, and a lot of times he doesn't get the credit that he deserves.

Bam Adebayo

Adebayo put forth an admirable effort in defeat. The big man served as Jokic's primary defender and recorded four 20-10 games, surpassing LeBron James for the most in a Finals series by a Heat player.
