Cam Payne @4000+...first off, why is he on the list at all, secondly, why is he over Tatum and Butler? :biggums:

Vegas knows jack all.
Weren't the Nuggets fourth or fifth favorites to win the title according to Vegas odds?

Pre-season is based on three factors
1. Name recognition
2. Early capital coming in
3. Diversity of the teams
Mikal Bridgers - Net
OS Anounoby - Raptor
Nic Claxron - Net
Draymond Green - Warrior
Walter Kessler - Jazz
JRue Holiday - Bucks
Jarrett Allen - Cavs
Robert Williams - Celtics
Mitchell Robinson - Knicks
Marcus Smart - Grizzilies
Wemby - Spurs
Leonard - Clippers
Herbert Jones - Pelicans
Alex Caruso - Bulls
Naz Ried - Timberwolves
Onyeka Okongwu - Hawks
Cameron Payne - Suns
Jayson Tatum - Celtics
Jimmy Butler - Heat
Ben Simmons - Nets
Vegas figures The Nets or Celtics are going to be the top defensive team in the league so they get multiple players...everyone else gets one player. In some cases it's a popular player (Butler, Leonard, Green) in other cases it's a player on a team in the mix. The teams that don't have selections are either teams at the bottom or the top of the league...
Lakers, Nuggets, 76ers, Kings
Rockets, Hornets, Pacers, Wizards, Trailblazers, Magic, Pistons, Thunder, Mavericks

I know there are only so many players they could list here, but how the FVCK did Kawhi & Simmons get put ahead of the reigning DPOY, Lopez, Bam & Giannis, and not one of them crack the top 20.

The only thing keeping Robert Williams from the award is potential knee trouble.

Because not enough money has been put on him...that's how betting lines work.
Lopez, Bam & Giannis, and not one of them crack the top 20.
Opposite issue, they don't put those 1,000 to 1 odds on the front runners that's not how betting works
