Trader consensus on Polymarket heavily favors Duke freshman Kon Knueppel at 72% implied probability for 2025-26 NBA Rookie of the Year, ahead of fellow Blue Devil Cooper Flagg at 28%, driven by Knueppel's elite sharpshooting (42% from three in high school) and projection for immediate high-usage role in Duke's top-ranked preseason offense. Recent preseason polls released October 15 positioned Duke at No. 1 nationally, amplifying hype around their loaded freshmen class including Flagg (consensus No. 1 draft prospect) and Khaman Maluach, but traders see Knueppel—ranked top-15 recruit—as primed for stat-padding efficiency amid favorable minutes distribution. Flagg's two-way stardom carries adjustment risk for ROY, while Rutgers duo Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey linger at 0.1% amid weaker team projections; no major injuries or withdrawals reported as college season tips off November 4.
