Official update of FMVP ranking: Alexander returns to first place over Harry, Jewish third place Caruso fifth place

On June 15, the Thunder tied the Pacers with a total score of 2-2. The NBA official website updated the FMVP (MVP) rankings, and Alexander surpassed Halliburton and returned to the first place. The following are the specific rankings and analysis -

1. Alexander, Thunder

2025 Finals data: Average of 32.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, key performance analysis:

His average score in this round of series is basically the same as the regular season. Although his efficiency does not meet personal standards, he has attracted the greatest attention of the Pacers' defense. When he completes a mid-range jumper at the position he is good at, he can always cause trouble for the Pacers.

In addition, the key to the series draw is his strong performance in the 4th quarter. Thunder might have been in trouble without his outbreak during that time. The team needs to do the performance of this MVP star.

2. Halliburton, Pacers

2025 Finals data: Average 17.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 7.5 assists

Key performance analysis:

Although the 4th quarter failed to continue the usual last-quarter magic, Halliburton is still the core figure of the Pacers and the most stable all-round player. He found the perfect balance between passing and shooting, and when decisions are made accurately, the Pacers' offensive efficiency is optimal.

Strangely, he only got free throws in 1 game in 4 games, which reduced scoring opportunities and also allowed Thunder players to avoid foul trouble. He may need to increase the frequency of breakouts to get more free throws.

3. Jaylen Williams, Thunder

2025 Finals data: Average of 22.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists, Key performance analysis:

Since the beginning of the series, Williams' performance has continued to improve. As Alexander attracted a lot of defensive attention, he seized the opportunity to complete the offense many times. Despite shooting just 40% from the field, he stole the most threatening in ball-holding breakthroughs and conversion attacks.

He takes on the heavy responsibility on the defensive end - usually defending Siakam, which means he must maintain the same energy on both ends of the offense and defense. In the fourth quarter, he successfully restricted Siakam, making the Pacers forward unable to escape defense.

4. Siakam, Pacers

2025 Finals data: Average of 18.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists, Key performance analysis:

He took over the situation in the middle of the game many times, laying the victory for the Pacers. When scores are needed, he is Indiana's most dangerous weapon, which can not only cause damage in the penalty area, but also end with a mid-range jump shot in the back.

He is also the Pacers' rebounding core. Since Miles Turner seems unable to secure the board, the team needs Siakam's presence at the basket, especially against Homegren and Harten - both players have a body advantage.

5. Caruso, Thunder

2025 Finals data: Average of 14.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.5 steals, key performance analysis: As a substitute, the Thunder's two wins are inseparable from his contribution. Every time he makes his appearance, Caruso can create influence on both offense and defense: destroying the offense by blocking the pass route and stealing the dribble, and scored 20 points in both wins.

This is exactly why the Thunder completed the deal with the Bulls last summer - in order to get the defensive disruptor and former NBA champion (2020 Lakers). His competitiveness is everywhere, especially when it comes to the toughest defensive tasks.
