Tracy McGrady Backs Luka Dončić for MVP, Calls for NBA Exception to 65-Game Rule Amid ‘Extraordinary Circumstances’
NBA icon Tracy McGrady is urging the league to grant Luka Dončić an exception to the 65-game eligibility rule for MVP and All-NBA honors. Dončić missed two games for the birth of his daughter, which McGrady argues should not count against his eligibility, separate from injuries or load management. If successful with an ‘extraordinary circumstances grievance,’ Dončić, the league’s leading scorer, could re-enter the hotly contested MVP race after a stellar season.
