The improvement of the current league's best player award is an inevitable trend. With the continuous development of basketball and the continuous pursuit of the level of competition by fans around the world, the league has to continuously improve and enhance the Best Player Award. The selection criteria for the best player award need to be more scientific and fair.
The selection of the best player award should focus more on the overall contribution of the player rather than on personal data. In the past, players 'scores, rebounds and assists became the main basis for selecting the best player. However, basketball is a team sport, and players 'contributions cannot be measured solely through personal data. When selecting the best player, the league needs to consider factors such as the player's leadership, defensive performance, and team success.
The selection of the best player award should focus more on the long-term performance of the player rather than short-term brilliance. The current Best Player Awards are usually selected once a season and are easily influenced by performance that year. However, a player's true value should be reflected throughout his career, not just one season of performance. Therefore, the league could consider extending the selection cycle or introducing a mechanism similar to the Basketball Hall of Fame to better evaluate the long-term value of players.
The selection of the best player awards should be more international. Basketball has become a global sport, with players coming from different countries and regions. However, current Best Player Awards are usually only for the American Professional Basketball League and lack recognition for players from other leagues. The league could consider working with other basketball leagues to establish global best player awards to better reflect the development of global basketball.
