Poole starred for the Warriors during their championship run last season, showing he could be the third Splash Brother and help prolong this Golden State dynasty with his youth. Name recognition and his eye-popping scoring numbers will keep him as one of the favorites through the rest of the season.Like Westbrook, Poole’s team is at risk of missing the playoffs, but I like the defending champs’ odds of getting back over .500 and into the Western Conference playoff picture.
There’s also some risk here in terms of whether he will even be considered a candidate for this award by year’s end. Poole has started 16 games this year, and each of the last 12 is due to a Steph Curry shoulder injury. If that number keeps climbing, voters may opt for other players that truly fit the “Sixth Man” role.Bennedict Mathurin
Mathurin is looking to become the first to win the Sixth Man of the Year award in his rookie season since Ben Gordon did it in 2004-05. He’s right in the mix, too, with the fourth-best odds in the field. The sixth overall pick in last year’s draft, Mathurin has been all the Indiana Pacers have been hoping for and more. He’s averaging 17.1 points and 3.9 rebounds per game while getting to the free throw line an excellent 5.5 times per game. He and Tyrese Haliburton have shown to be one of the most promising backcourt pairings in the NBA.
