As the month of February comes to a close, Rudy Gobert finds himself as a solid favorite in the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award race. The Utah Jazz center has been dominant, but there are other challengers with competitive odds to win DPOY as well.

FanDuel Sportbook's NBA futures have Gobert in the lead as the -210 favorite, up from +120 odds in mid-February. He has stifled opponents this season with 2.8 blocks per game and is a huge part of the Jazz having the league's best record so far.

Myles Turner (+350) and his league-best 3.4 blocks per game are second in the current odds, while Ben Simmons (+500) and Anthony Davis (+850) are also in contention, although Davis has not played since Feb. 14 due to a strained Achilles.

Here's the latest odds for Defensive Player of the Year from FanDuel Sportsbook.

NBA Defensive Player of the Year Odds

1. Rudy Gobert (-210)

2. Myles Turner (+350)

3. Ben Simmons (+500)
