The Korean Basketball League Playoffs Most Valuable Player Award (Playoffs MVP) (Korean: 플레이오프 MVP) is an annual Korean Basketball League (KBL) award given since 1997 to the best performing player of the playoffs.[1]
At the conclusion of the regular season, the top two ranked teams automatically qualify for the semifinals while the third to sixth-ranked teams qualify for the quarterfinals stage. The award specifically recognizes players for their performances during the playoffs, without taking into account of their record during the regular season. The awardee is selected by press vote.[2]
Hur Jae is the only player to have won the award as a member of the runner-up team.[3] Future regular season MVPs Joo Hee-jung and Oh Se-keun both won the award during their rookie season.[4]

Notes
- ^ Prior to the founding of the professional Korean Basketball League, the predecessor National Basketball Festival (농구대잔치) ended its final season in January 1997. The first season of the KBL began play in February 1997 to facilitate the transition. Since the 1997–98 season, the KBL season runs from October until April.
- ^ The league was canceled in the middle of the fifth round of the regular season, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The playoffs were also canceled as a result.[5]
