Maxey is the preseason chalk, I agree he is the front runner, but these markets rarely see a wire to wire winner. Haliburton as expected shined last night and now his odds are around +1600 on some sites while others are still sleeping on him hanging +3000...all I'm saying is now is the time to grab his odds and tuck it away until March when hopefully there will be a very profitable hedge opportunity on Maxey.
Haliburton was not expected to be this good this fast, but it's clear as day that the Pacers are his team now and the entire roster has annointed him as the team's alpha dog...this will help him collect insane type stats on a regular basis whereas Maxey is the 2nd in command behind Embiid, and will always have to compete to get the same type of video game type numbers.
The players listed between Maxey and Haliburton have very little chance to win this award in my opinion.
Haliburton will likely take over the finals this weekend in Vegas and his stock may rise as far as 2nd or 3rd...click now or forever hold your peace on these Longshot odds 
He's definitely a factor, being in 2nd place odds wise, however I think Houston is about to hit the wall and start losing far more than currently, and that will likely affect how voters and oddsmakers view Sengun's role in this category. Same goes with Barnes, he is a huge talent and likely going to take over the Raptors as their on court leader, but Toronto will lose a lot as the season goes on, which should affect his overall ranking in this betting option.
Winning makes a huge impact here, and it will most likely become a two horse race between winning players from winning teams, Philly vs Pacers...everyone expected to 76ers to be competitive once moving on from Harden, but the Pacers have truly exceeded their expectations thus far, and the main reason is Haliburton's play.
Should be a very interesting season long wager, and at these odds, I'm a daily fanboy of Tyrese until April 
The Toronto sportbook kiosks now have Haliburton @ +500...hope lots of Tyrese tickets were stuffed into your Xmas stockings while The People's Champ 
was touting that legit Longshot odds before the oddsmakers and sports talk radio hype train finally got on board and could no longer ignore just how electric this guy has been this season...at this pace, I think he'll be even odds with Maxey by the All Star Break, if not the slight favorite as long as Indy keeps winning at a steady clip.
