NBA Awards eligibility tracker: Nikola Jokić questionable for must-play game on Sunday

With the NBA’s regular season ending Sunday, attention will soon turn to the playoffs and the league’s annual award races. But there are still some major awards questions to figure out, such as whether Nikola Jokić will even be eligible.

Due to the NBA’s 65-game rule, a number of injured stars — including LeBron James, Cade Cunningham, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Stephen Curry — are already ineligible for regular-season honors.

The exact rule is that players must play at least 20 minutes in 65 games during the regular season to be awards-eligible, though they get two games in which they only have to play for 15 minutes. The NBA Cup championship game, which doesn’t count in the standings, also counts as a game played for players on the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs.

With only game remaining for every team, there are still a couple All-Stars who need to play Sunday to be awards-eligible. That includes Jokić, who missed Friday’s game with right wrist injury management alongside the rest of the Denver Nuggets’ starting five.

He is officially questionable for Sunday’s game on the Nuggets’ injury report, while every other starter has been ruled out again for a clash with the San Antonio Spurs that could decide who gets the third seed in the Western Conference playoffs.

Let’s take a look at who still needs to become eligible.

Nikola Jokić, Nuggets: 17 missed games

  • Missed a month with a left knee injury

  • Needs to play at least 15 minutes in the Nuggets’ regular-season finale against the San Antonio Spurs to become eligible

Deni Avdija, Trail Blazers:16 missed games

  • Missed time with a back injury

  • Needs to play at least 20 minutes in the Trail Blazers’ regular-season finale against the Sacramento Kings to become eligible

  • Appeared for less than a minute in one game, which does not count toward his total

These star players will not reach the league’s 65-game threshold for year-end awards this season.

  • Luka Dončić, Lakers (expected to appeal)

  • Anthony Edwards, Timberwolves

  • Cade Cunningham, Pistons

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bucks

  • Devin Booker, Suns

  • Jimmy Butler, Warriors

  • Stephen Curry, Warriors

  • Anthony Davis, Mavericks/Wizards

  • Joel Embiid, 76ers

  • Paul George, 76ers

  • Josh Giddey, Bulls

  • LeBron James, Lakers

  • Lauri Markkanen, Jazz

  • Ja Morant, Grizzlies

  • Austin Reaves, Lakers

  • Domantas Sabonis, Kings

  • Franz Wagner, Magic

  • Jalen Williams, Thunder

  • Trae Young, Hawks/Wizards

These players officially became awards-eligible on Friday.

  • Victor Wembanyama, Spurs

  • Kawhi Leonard, Clippers

  • Evan Mobley, Cavaliers

2026 NBA playoff picture: Clinching scenarios, tiebreakers, everything to know entering final day of regular season

The final day of the NBA’s regular season is upon us on Sunday.

Not a single first-round playoff series is set entering the day’s action. In the Eastern Conference, the top-seeded Detroit Pistons could face anyone from the Toronto Raptors to the Orlando Magic, Philadelphia 76ers, Charlotte Hornets or Miami Heat.

Out West, most everything is settled, except for two key outcomes: The Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Lakers are vying for the Nos. 3 and 4 seeds, while the Portland Trail Blazers and LA Clippers are jockeying for the Nos. 8 and 9 seeds.

You get the point. There is a lot left to be decided, and that’s what we’re here for, to sort it all out, providing you with everything you need to know about the postseason.

The Pistons, Celtics, Knicks and Cavaliers have secured the Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4 seeds, respectively. Who each will face in the first round of the playoffs is still up for grabs.

The Hawks have captured one of the two remaining guaranteed playoff seeds in the East. They will finish either fifth or sixth. The conference’s final guaranteed playoff seed will go to the Raptors, Magic or Sixers; only Toronto can finish as high as fifth.

Whichever two teams fail to qualify for the last guaranteed playoff spot will face each other in the 7-8 play-in tournament game. The Hornets and Heat will play in the 9-10 game, though which team will host that outing is still left to be determined.
