Brooklyn Nets sharpshooter Joe Harris surprised the NBA last season by taking home the 2019 3-Point Contest at 6-1 odds; he was the fifth-most likely player. This year, though, he's at +400 to defend his title, the second-highest odds.
The current favorite is Atlanta Hawks PG Trae Young at +350, followed by Harris, Davis Bertans (+450) and Buddy Hield (+550).
Last season Stephen Curry was a nearly odds-on favorite at +150, so the field is much more spread out this season.
Also note that the field is smaller this season (eight) compared to last year (10). There's also additional rules added this year: There are two extra green balls six feet behind the 3-point line that are worth three points a piece, making the highest score possible now 40 points for a round.
