In this Locked on 76ers podcast, Keith Pompey said Joel Embiid and Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic are the leading NBA MVP candidates. Embiid has missed 18 of the Sixers' 57 games. As a result, the Sixers center hasn't played in enough games for his statistics to qualify for league rankings. However, Jokic has played in all 57 Nuggets games. Will voters hold that against him? Pompey also talks about Phoenix Suns foward Mikal Bridges and Derek Chauvin's guilty verdict.
