The surprising betting interest on Los Angeles Lakers rookie Bronny James that began before the NBA draft has continued into the regular season, even surpassing the action on his legendary father.

More bets have been placed on James to win the NBA's Rookie of the Year than any other player at multiple major U.S. sportsbooks.

FanDuel reported Tuesday that 20% of the money that had been bet on its odds to win Rookie of the Year was on James, the most of any player.
