Here’s what you need to know about the ROI odds board:

Favorites: After departure number 1 to Dallas in the 2025 NBA Draft, Flagg opened as a -185 favorite to win the MVP award. Months later, he remains atop the list, and he had his biggest game to date on Sunday night against Toronto, helping the Mavs to their first win of the season with 22 points, four rebounds, four assists and a block.

Number 2: However, Flagg hasn’t been the biggest rookie story so far. That tag belongs Philly’s VJ Edgecombe. In his first professional game, Edgecombe dropped 34 points in the Sixers’ 117-116 win over Boston on Oct. 22. It was the most points scored by a rookie in his debut since Wilt Chamberlain scored 43 points back on October 24, 1959. He added seven rebounds and three assists. Edgecombe followed with 15 points, eight assists, six rebounds and three steals in a 124-121 win over the Hornets on Oct. 25. With that, he jumped from +2500 after the draft all the way up to +190 one week into the season.
