The 'NBA MVP' quiz

Reigning MVP Joel Embiid has not been on an NBA court since the end of January, and in that time, the Philadelphia 76ers have fallen from the top of the Eastern Conference standings all the way down into the play-in tournament. But with two weeks to go in the regular season, the Sixers are getting a massive boost, as Embiid could return as soon as Tuesday. Granted, the 30-year-old center likely won't be at the peak of his powers, and it will be an uphill battle for Philly to do real damage in the postseason. But with No. 21 in the starting lineup, they could be the squad that no team wants to play in the first round. 

Which brings us to today's quiz of the day. In honor of Embiid's imminent return, we wan t to see how many players to win the NBA MVP Award you can name in five minutes.

Good luck!
