2023 NBA Draft odds: Scoot Henderson new favorite to be second pick over Brandon Miller

The NBA Draft is finally here, and the odds for at least one player are on the move again.

For the second time this week, point guard Scoot Henderson has overtaken Alabama's Brandon Miller as the player most likely to be selected No. 2 by the Charlotte Hornets. 

Shams Charania of The Athletic tweeted that the Hornets appear committed to drafting Henderson, which immediately flipped the No. 2 pick odds.

Less than a week ago, Miller's No. 2 pick odds went all the way out to -250, but as you can see, that has shifted drastically over the last few days. The odds tell the story, and Henderson's odds shortened while Miller's lengthened. That is until June 21, when Henderson lengthened to +200 and Miller shortened all the way to -400, making the Alabama product the front-runner to be the second pick. 

As we saw last year, the late odds movement played out perfectly when Paolo Banchero's No. 1 pick lines shifted drastically leading up to the draft.

Could Henderson (-320) follow in Jalen Green's footsteps and go from the G-League to having his name called second in the NBA Draft?

Per FOX Sports Research, here's the odds movement on Henderson being the No. 2 pick since mid-May:

June 22: -320 (bet $10 to win $13.13 total)
June 21: +200 (bet $10 to win $30 total)
June 20: -275 (bet $10 to win $13.64 total)
June 13: +160 (bet $10 to win $26 total)
June 6: -140 (bet $10 to win $17.14 total)
May 16: -170 (bet $10 to win $15.88 total)

The 6-foot-2, 195-pound Henderson from Marietta, Georgia, was a consensus five-star recruit who bypassed his senior season of high school and played two seasons for the Ignite.

BetMGM has Scoot as the highest ticket and handle percentages for the No. 2 pick overall. 

While anything can happen with only a few hours to go, Henderson now looks like a lock to go second overall.  

The Charlotte Hornets own that No. 2 pick. Could LaMelo Ball and Henderson form the backcourt of the future for Team Teal? Outside of a trade, it appears likely.

But if there is a trade, expect a number of teams to inquire about the second pick. The New Orleans Pelicans have the No 14 pick but reportedly are considering including Zion Williamson — the No. 1 pick in 2019 — in a trade to move up in the draft to select Henderson.

So who is Scoot Henderson?

Henderson has drawn comparisons to Derrick Rose and Russell Westbrook. He played in 19 games this season for the G-League Unite, averaging 16.5 points per game. 

Henderson averaged 30.7 minutes, 6.8 assists, 5.3 rebounds. 1.1 steals and 3.4 turnovers per game. He shot 42.9% from the floor, 27.5% on 3-pointers and 76.4% on free throws.

Henderson comes from an athletic group of siblings. He has three sisters who played NCAA Division I basketball. Diamond played for Tennessee Tech and Syracuse and China and Onyx both played for Cal State Fullerton.

The draft betting market is fluid, so we're sure these numbers will change even more. Stay tuned to FOX Sports for all the updates on the NBA Draft odds.
