The 2021 NBA Draft is upon us.

The Detroit Pistons hold the No. 1 pick this year, and while the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets have attempted to acquire the pick, the Pistons seem intent on making the selection.

It is widely expected the Pistons will take Oklahoma State’s Cade Cunningham. Long considered the top pick in this draft class, Cunningham’s odds to be the first pick are currently -5,000, according to BetMGM.

However, the Pistons have also done their homework on the NBA G League Ignite’s Jalen Green, whose odds are currently 14/1. Green is followed by USC’s Evan Mobley (22/1) and Gonzaga’s Jalen Suggs (25/1.)

Even though Cunningham seems to be the favorite for the No. 1 pick, there are still plenty of wagers to be made. Here are some other 2021 NBA Draft bets that could be intriguing, with the Rockets, Cleveland Cavaliers and Toronto Raptors scheduled to pick at Nos. 2, 3 and 4, respectively.
