Giannis Antetokounmpo landed the NBA MVP Award for the 2018-19 Regular Season on Monday evening. The Greek Freak became the 34th different most valuable player in NBA history, only the second from Europe after Dirk Nowitzki and the fourth born outside the US, after Steve Nash and Hakeem Olajuwon.

The achievement places him among the most important players to have ever played the game of basketball, as the list of previous winners proves.
