The NBA is back! And to set off the season opener, Senior NBA writer Matt Moore is joined by the Action Network NBA staff for a special NBA Futures Draft for the 2021-22 season. Certified BUCKETS!

Here’s the concept: They each draft their bets for six awards — Coach of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year, Sixth Man of the Year, Most Improved Player, and Most Valuable Player — plus one flex pick that can cover any award on the board. They had to wager a bankroll of $1000 across the seven picks.

Listen in to hear each writer’s picks and thought process on how they drafted each award winner. 

Be sure to check out our regular show with Matt Moore and Raheem Palmer on Wednesday - highlighting best bets in Week 1.
