The 'NBA Finals MVPs' quiz

Oklahoma City has had an MVP before. Oklahoma City has had an NBA scoring champion before. But until now it never had an NBA champion. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander changed that with one of the greatest individual seasons ever compiled. En route to winning the NBA Finals SGA won the NBA scoring title, regular season MVP award, Western Conference Finals MVP and NBA Finals MVP. He also became just the 10th player in NBA history to win regular season MVP, Finals MVP and a ring in the same year and the first to do it since LeBron James in 2013. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. SGA averaged 30.3 points, 5.6 assists and 4.6 rebounds in 38.1 minutes-per-game to hoist the Bill Russell Trophy for the first time in his career. With that being said, how many of the players to be named NBA Finals MVP can you name in six minutes?

Good luck!
