2015/16 NBA Rookie of the Year Odds

The 2015 NBA Draft was one of the deepest in recent memory, meaning there's no shortage of value when it comes to Rookie of the Year betting this season.

According to Sportsbook Philadelphia 76ers talented big man Jahlil Okafor is the slight +350 favorite to claim the award, followed by Denver's Emmanuel Mudiay (+375), Los Angeles Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell (+400), Minnesota's Karl-Anthony Towns (+680) and Miami's Justise Winslow (+1000)

As a result of the news that 2014 No. 3 overall selection Joel Embiid will be sidelined for another year with a nagging foot injury, Okafor will have plenty of opportunity to grow in Philly's frontcourt alongside fellow young gun Nerlens Noel in 2015/16.

Mudiay, who is expected to step in as Denver's starting point guard in the wake of the Nuggets' decision to ship Ty Lawson to Houston, could also be in for a big year in the Mile High City.

No. 4 selection Kristaps Porzingis is widely considered to be a long-term project for the New York Knicks, evidenced by the Latvian's +2200 odds at Sportsbook to win the rookie bragging rights. The same goes for former Kentucky Wildcat Willie Cauley-Stein, whose +4000 price is nothing short of a longshot despite being taken sixth overall by Sacramento.
