Two-time Wooden Award winner Zach Edey is nearly a co-favorite at FanDuel to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award this coming season.

The Purdue big man was drafted ninth overall by the Memphis Grizzlies, and his odds have shifted from +1000 at open to +650. The favorite is second overall pick Alexandre Sarr of the Washington Wizards.

However, Edey still has +1000 odds at DraftKings and is tied for the fourth favorite. He’s also the fourth favorite at Caesars but with +750 odds.

Only 11 players have ever won both the Wooden Award and the NBA Rookie of the Year award. Oklahoma’s Blake Griffin in 2011 was the last to accomplish the feat.
