The NBA awards, bubble or not, are still happening. Our staff picked their winners for each category.

The NBA has made it to where the final eight games happening within the bubble for each team does not count towards the final NBA awards. That means that voting is already underway.

After several months of not being able to watch any basketball at all, games are finally being played again. The Timberwolves, though, are not included in the league’s restart. Given the overall lackluster season Minnesota had, there are not really any of the Timberwolves’ players up for any major awards.

The only player on the Minnesota Timberwolves that might gain some national recognition is Josh Okogie, who has a chance to make an All-Defense team. Again though, this seems unlikely, given just how awful the overall team defense was under Ryan Saunders’ first year as head coach.

Without further ado, let’s get into the awards.
