2024-2025 NBA futures

Most sportsbooks are taking bets for next season’s NBA Champion, the Eastern Conference winners, Western Conference winners, and the regular season MVP. The Nuggets are the betting favourites to win the west. The Celtics are the betting favourites to win the east. Teams always look a little different once the season starts, so the odds will change over the next few months. Right now is a great time to place bets if you believe that a team will make a big move to put themselves in title contention. This is also a great time to bet if you believe a team is being underrated by the sportsbooks.

The Toronto Raptors are tied with the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards, Chicago Bulls, Charlotte Hornets, and Detroit Pistons for the worst odds to win the east with +25000 odds. The Raptors are in rebuild mode after the Pascal Siakam and O.G. Anunoby trades. They most likely have no shot to win the east unless their young players find a way to take their games to the next level, assuming the other teams in the east don’t have a ton of injuries.
