NBA Draft No. 1 pick odds

Darryn Peterson: +125 (bet $10 to win $22.50 total)
AJ Dybantsa: +140 (bet $10 to win $24 total)
Cameron Boozer: +380 (bet $10 to win $48 total)

Depending on who you ask, Peterson was the best player coming into college this season, while others might have said Dybantsa, and others might have said Boozer. And the No. 1 pick odds reflect that confusion, as the trio are already in a three-horse race to see who gets their name called first. 

Peterson — a 6-foot-6 point guard for Kansas — tops the board as of now, but he's only played two games due to injury. However, in those games, he was awesome, averaging 21.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, three assists, a block and a steal, while connecting on 60% of his shots from the field and 50% of his 3s. 

Dybantsa is a 6-foot-8 do-it-all forward for BYU, and through five games — four wins and a narrow loss to then-No. 3 UConn — he's putting up 19.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists, and shooting 54.8% from the field. 

Lastly, Boozer is tallying 21.1 points, 9.9 rebounds and 4.0 assists for the 7-0 Duke Blue Devils. 

Needless to say, it's going to be a long process for the NBA squad picking No. 1 next summer.
