2026-2027 NBA Futures: Clutch Player of the Year November Odds Update

Most awards that mean anything in the NBA have been around for decades. MVP, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year. But in a move rarely seen in North American pro sports, the NBA added an award recently: the Clutch Player of the Year.

It’s an interesting one because, while clutch stats have definitely become a thing, this one does rely very heavily on the eye and feel test. Through four years, only point guards have won, and they’ve all been perennial All-Stars: De’Aaron Fox, Stephen Curry, Jalen Brunson, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Will another PG win it again this year?

Sports betting sites think not–for now at least. Read on for the latest NBA Clutch Player of the Year betting odds as well as our breakdown of how the odds have shifted since the season started!

Odds Movement

Before the season started, a prior winner, Jalen Brunson, was touted as the favourite. And fair enough. Awards aside, he’s arguably the most clutch player in the league just based off his performances late in big games. And he just won Finals MVP. Nuff said.

But through the first three weeks, his odds have actually dropped from +700 at the top to +1,000 back in the pack but still in the mix. Boston’s Jayson Tatum has taken the lead at the top with +700 odds of his own after coming into the season with +3,000 odds to win this award. He would also be the first forward to take home Jerry West Trophy.

Philly’s Tyrese Maxey is right there at +750 too though. And he also started the season on the outside looking in with +3,000 odds. Ty Jerome is a shock contender at +850, but a deserved one. Former winners SGA and Steph Curry are in the top 10, as are other big names including Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, Cooper Flagg, and Cade Cunningham.

This does seem to be a big name award, which is good news for everyone we’ve mentioned here but Jerome. Sorry, Ty.
