Don’t bet against Zion Williamson in this NCAA Tournament.
He’s already defied the odds.
After missing five games to close out the regular season because of a knee sprain, the 6-foot-7, 285-pound phenom roared back to score 81 points in three games en route to ACC Tournament MVP honors.
Now entering the Big Dance, you can get 6/1 odds via MyTopSportsbooks.com on whether Williamson will be named Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four.

Another prop bet involving Williamson revolves around whether he’ll score over/under 101 points in the Big Dance. Considering he just went for 81 in three games in the ACCS, it doesn’t seem to far-fetched to imagine him going for 101 across four, five or six games if Duke makes the run many expect them to.
They are the No. 1 overall seed and there sure is plenty of curiosity surrounding Williamson. Nearly 600 media members are credentialed for Columbia, S.C., Where Duke opens on Thursday.
