2021 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Odds
Updated Wed, Mar. 3, 4:45 PM ET - Odds Provided by DraftKings - Subject to Change
The Defensive Player of the Year Award is one of the closer award races this season. Rudy Gobert is a strong favorite with Anthony Davis missing time. Ben Simmons looming does make one wonder if he might be a better selection with half of a season to go.
He will have to compete with teammate Joel Embiid however. The best long shot to win could be Davis, with odds at or near +2000 and a possible contender should he return with a strong second half of the season.
