Murray missed nine games last season as he recovered from a torn ACL and is also zooming up the board of favorites to win Comeback Player of the Year at DraftKings.

Murray opened at +3000 and now sits at +1000. There was major movement on Monday morning, as Murray’s odds shortened from +2000 to +1000, which likely signifies a lot of money came in on him.
