September 6, 2016 - 12:00 pm
One Olympian is favored to repeat her success on the new season of “Dancing With the Stars” (8 p.m. Sept. 12, ABC). Another, not so much.
Gold medal-winning gymnast Laurie Hernandez is tapped by Johnny Avello, director of race and sports operations at Wynn Las Vegas, as the 5-1 favorite to take home the mirror ball trophy.
Controversial swimmer Ryan Lochte, meanwhile, is picked to barely keep his head above water at 11-1.
Here’s how Avello sees the competition breaking down. And, remember, odds are for entertainment purposes only.
Laurie Hernandez 5-1
Amber Rose 6-1
Marilu Henner 7-1
Calvin Johnson 8-1
Jana Kramer 9-1
Vanilla Ice 10-1
Ryan Lochte 11-1
Jake T. Austin 12-1
