Immanuel Quickley, Malik Monk among early favorites to win NBA 6th Man of the Year

The NBA preseason is still a couple of weeks away, but the folks in Las Vegas are always thinking ahead.

The good folks over at FanDuel have released future odds for preseason favorites to win the 2023-24 NBA Sixth Man of the Year award. Among the early frontrunners are a pair of former Kentucky Wildcats backcourt players. New York Knicks guard Immanuel Quickley is tied for the second-best odds at +850 while Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk comes in tied for third with +1000.

Both Quickley and Monk were in contention for the award last season, which is handed out to the league’s top off-the-bench performer.
