Rudy Gobert, Bam Adebayo Lead Opening NBA Defensive Player of the Year Odds for 2022-23 Season

Marcus Smart won the NBA's Defensive Player of the Year award last season. Rudy Gobert and Bam Adebayo are the favourites to win the award in 2022-23 season, according to OddsShark.

Ben Simmons is back after a back injury and is expected to play a major defensive role for the Brooklyn Nets next season. He finished second in the voting for Defensive Player of the Year in 2020-21 season and he is one of NBA's most versatile defenders.

Simmons has made two All-Defensive teams in his career and is a good bet to win this award this time.
