NBA Finals winner 2025-26 season Oklahoma City Thunder: +130 (bet $10 to win $23 total)Boston Celtics: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total)San Antonio Spurs: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)Denver Nuggets: +800 (bet $10 to win $90 total)Cleveland Cavaliers: +1300 (bet $10 to win $140 total)New York Knicks: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)Detroit Pistons: +2500 (bet $10 to win $260 total)Los Angeles Lakers: +3000 (bet $10 to win $310 total)Minnesota Timberwolves: +4500 (bet $10 to win $460 total)Houston Rockets: +7500 (bet $10 to win $760 total)Philadelphia 76ers: +8000 (bet $10 to win $810 total)Charlotte Hornets: +12000 (bet $10 to win $1,210 total)Atlanta Hawks: +15000 (bet $10 to win $1,510 total)Miami Heat: +18000 (bet $10 to win $1,810 total)Orlando Magic: +20000 (bet $10 to win $2,010 total)Toronto Raptors: +30000 (bet $10 to win $3,010 total)LA Clippers: +30000 (bet $10 to win $3,010 total)Golden State Warriors: +40000 (bet $10 to win $4,010 total)Phoenix Suns: +50000 (bet $10 to win $5,010 total)Portland Trail Blazers: +300000 (bet $10 to win $30,010 total) Here is what to know about the NBA title oddsboard: The League Leaders: The Thunder's 60-16 record is the best in the league, but it is still not enough to lock down home-court advantage through the playoffs — at least not yet. The Spurs are just two games back with a handful of games left, meaning both teams won't rest their starters at least for another week or so. While OKC is first on the oddsboard and has been all season, the Spurs are third, just behind Boston, which has the second-best record in the East and recently welcomed back superstar forward Jayson Tatum. Since Tatum's return, the Celtics are 10-2. Denver Dilemma: Will the real Denver Nuggets please stand up? For the majority of the season, the Nuggets were second on the title oddsboard, but they have now been sitting in fourth for a few weeks. Denver is fourth in the West standings, looking to hold off Minnesota in fifth, and despite being on a seven-game win streak, defensively, things have been abysmal in recent weeks. In the month of March alone, the Nuggets allowed 129, 125 and 117 points to Utah, 142 to New York, 135 to Dallas, 131 to San Antonio (without Wemby) and 125 to Memphis. In addition, when facing the top three teams in the West, Denver is 0-3 against OKC, 1-1 against San Antonio (Wemby has not played in either game) and 1-2 against the Lakers.
