Tomorrow at 8 PM on ABC and streaming on Disney+, the debut of Dancing with the Stars Season 33 will begin. Thirteen contestants are competing for this year’s Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, including actors, reality television stars, and athletes.
Betting on Dancing with the Stars has already begun, with odds offered on each dancer’s chances of winning.
DWTS 33 Odds To Win
- Ilona Maher +350
- Joey Graziadei +450
- Stephen Nedoroscik +500
- Danny Amendola +800
- Chandler Kinney +800
- Jenn Tran +800
- Phaedra Parks +1000
- Dwight Howard +1000
- Eric Roberts +1200
- Tori Spelling +1200
- Brooks Nader +1200
- Anna Delvey +2000
- Reginald VelJohnson +2500
The early DWTS odds favor Ilona Maher, an American rugby player whose impressive size and strength gained attention at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics. She’s a likely favorite among viewers, but we have doubts as to whether she can survive the judge’s scorecards long enough to become the champion.
Joey Graziadei was the star of The Bachelor season 28, which aired during the spring of 2024. Graziadei was also the runner-up of The Bachelorette season 20, losing out on the love interest of Charity Lawson to winner Dotun Olubeko in March of 2023.
Graziadei was a collegiate tennis player, but other than his youth and former athletic prowess, we see no reason to believe he’ll win DWTS season 33.
A former professional baller that gamblers need to consider is Danny Amendola. Current entertainment prop bets are placing him in a tie for fourth place at +800, where a $1 wager will payout at $9 if Amendola wins.
Amendola exhibited excellent footwork during his career as a wide receiver in the National Football League, and there is plenty of evidence to suggest that these skills will transfer to Dancing with the Stars.
Take a look at the following NFL Players and how they fared during past DWTS seasons.
- Season 24 – Rashad Jennings – Winner
- Season 14 – Donald Driver – Winner
- Season 12 – Hines Ward – Winner
- Season 7 – Warren Sapp – Runner-Up
- Season 3 – Emmitt Smith – Winner
- Season 2 – Jerry Rice – Runner-Up
Online entertainment sportsbooks are also taking bets on the winner’s age and gender. These odds don’t line up with the current DWTS futures because they favor a male between the ages of 20 and 29 to win.
Age of Winner
- Twenties -150
- Any other (NOT 20s) +110
Sex of Winner
- Male -250
- Female +170
Unfortunately, BetOnline doesn’t allow parlay bets to be placed on all three sets of DWTS odds. Still, those who go all-in on Amendola can wager $10 on all three lines and come out with a $90 win if Danny hoists the trophy at the conclusion of the season finale.
