The BSN Most Valuable Player (Jugador Más Valioso) is an annual most valuable player award of Puerto Rico's top-tier level professional basketball league, the Baloncesto Superior Nacional (BSN), that is given to the best performing player of the regular season. The award is decided by a panel of local sportswriters and broadcasters, each of whom casts votes. As of August 2018, the current holder of the award is Reyshawn Terry, of the Piratas de Quebradillas.[1]

Juan "Pachín" Vicéns, Teófilo Cruz, and Mario "Quijote" Morales won the award a record four times. Juan Báez, Raymond Dalmau, Georgie Torres, and Christian Dalmau won the BSN Most Valuable Player award three times.[1]

 
José Ortiz won the award in 2002 as a member of the Cangrejeros de Santurce.
 
Donta Smith followed consecutive two-time winner Christian Dalmau in 2012.
