Illinois freshman guard Keaton Wagler leads trader consensus at 15% implied probability for NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player after earning South Region MOP honors, highlighted by his 25-point Elite Eight performance that sent the Fighting Illini to their first Final Four since 2005 versus UConn on April 4. Averaging 17.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists through four tournament games, the former three-star recruit's breakout run amid a balanced Final Four—also featuring top seeds Arizona and Michigan—drives his edge over distant challengers like Duke's Cameron Boozer (1.5%), whose Blue Devils fell in the Elite Eight. With no dominant national performer yet, team title path and sustained impact differentiate frontrunners in this wide-open market.
