The 2025-26 NBA season continues to inch closer as the schedule has been released and everybody’s attention turns to opening night in October. With that being said, now is the time to look at some odds for certain awards concerning the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While MVP is normally the one to watch for the Sixers due to the presence of Joel Embiid, there is some injury concern there, so this one is focused on Rookie of the Year due to the presence of VJ Edgecombe.<\/p>\n

FanDuel released their Rookie of the Year odds <\/a>with Edgecombe ranking fourth in those odds with +1300. He is behind only San Antonio Spurs<\/a> guard Dylan Harper, Washington Wizards<\/a> guard Tre Johnson, and Dallas Mavericks<\/a> forward Cooper Flagg.<\/p>\n

Edgecombe’s chances to win Rookie of the Year will depend on how much the ball will be in his hands. The Sixers have a lot of guards they will rely on more than him–notably Tyrese Maxey and Jared McCain–and numbers are a big part of the ROY voting. Edgecombe might not have the best chance to take home the award, but that will depend on what role he will have in the 2025-26 season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 2025-26 NBA season continues to inch closer as the schedule has been released and everybody’s attention turns…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":235417,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3769],"tags":[679,673,7,686,149,3279,1603,1255,166,4196,1604,70,85,6,62,67,61,81,678,207,3817,672,474,66,83,534,256,1263,20172,971,682,468,683],"class_list":{"0":"post-235416","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia-76ers","8":"tag-76ers","9":"tag-antonio","10":"tag-basketball","11":"tag-dallas","12":"tag-dallas-mavericks","13":"tag-edgecombe","14":"tag-jared","15":"tag-jared-mccain","16":"tag-mavericks","17":"tag-maxey","18":"tag-mccain","19":"tag-national","20":"tag-national-sports","21":"tag-nba","22":"tag-neutral","23":"tag-news","24":"tag-overall","25":"tag-overall-neutral","26":"tag-philadelphia","27":"tag-philadelphia-76ers","28":"tag-philadelphia76ers","29":"tag-san","30":"tag-san-antonio-spurs","31":"tag-sports","32":"tag-sports-news","33":"tag-spurs","34":"tag-tyrese","35":"tag-tyrese-maxey","36":"tag-vj","37":"tag-vj-edgecombe","38":"tag-washington","39":"tag-washington-wizards","40":"tag-wizards"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115041917786242637","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235416","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=235416"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235416\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/235417"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=235416"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=235416"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=235416"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
