Martin Truex Jr. has won 23 races and one championship (2017) over the past four NASCAR Cup Series seasons, but has yet to win at superspeedway race in his 14-year career as a full-time driver.
Last season's superspeedway stats don't instill much confidence, but being a championship-caliber driver in the series' best equipment provides enough reason to avoid writing Truex off in the Daytona 500.
Here's the full list of Daytona 500 odds and betting options for Truex currently available at DraftKings Sportsbook.

Martin Truex Jr. Daytona 500 Best Bet Pick
At these prices Truex is basically a fade for me, especially with no driver matchups available.
If more matchup open and involve Truex, I'll look to fade him against any driver with comparable futures odds.
And if forced to make on bet on this board, I'd play him for a top-10 finish.
