Both Allonzo Trier and Lauri Markkanen find themselves on the list, and in that order.

Here’s a look at the complete odds provided by Bovada:

As you can see, Trier is 5th and Markkanen is 8th, with Lonzo Ball being the slight favorite over the likes of Justin Jackson, Frank Mason III, and Nigel Williams-Goss.

In not-totally unrelated news, Bleacher Report put out a list of the top players remaining in the tourney. Trier was 20th and Markkanen was 14th. Mason beat out Ball for the top honors on this particular list.
