We are three-quarters through the NBA regular season and there are 3 teams that have separated themselves from the rest of the pack: the Boston Celtics, Milwaukee Bucks and Denver Nuggets all have 41+ wins coming out of out all-star break.

With all of this, our NBA Awards futures market is a mixed bag of definitive outcomes and “Well…what can he do with 23 games left?”. I've decided to look at the top awards categories and offer insights, along with any remaining value.
