NBA Title Odds Movement Timeline

  • June 20 – For the first time since 2016, we’re getting a Game 7! The Pacers’ (+260) decisive Game 6 win is sending the finals back to OKC, where the Thunder (-325) remain as favorites.
  • June 17 – The Thunder are just one win away from their first NBA Championship! A dominant win over the Pacers in Game 5 now has OKC as short as -1750 to capture the title in Game 6 on Thursday.
  • June 11 – After winning Game 3 116-107, Indiana’s title odds have shortened to +185, but I get the feeling that they won’t officially become favorites until they win a third game in this series.
  • June 9 – With the series levelled at 1-1 as it moves to Gainbridge Fieldhouse, OKC is back to being a -550 favorite to win the NBA Finals.
  • June 6 – The Pacers have done it again. Indiana erased another double-digit deficit in the 2025 playoffs to win Game 1 in OKC, and have moved to +245 to win the series.
  • June 2 – The NBA Finals are set! The Thunder open as massive -700 favorites in their second-ever finals appearance against the Pacers, who are getting roughly +500 to win their first championship.
  • May 20 – We’re down to our final four teams! The Thunder head into the conference finals as odds-on favorites to capture their first title in OKC, averaging -169 odds as of Monday night.
  • May 9 – Despite stealing a win in Minnesota, the Warriors saw their title odds rise to +3000, largely due to Stephen Curry’s hamstring injury keeping him out for the next week.
  • May 5 – The Timberwolves’ average title odds shortened dramatically, from +3371 to +1443, thanks to their defeat of the Lakers in the first round and the benefit of facing the seventh-seeded Warriors in the Western semifinals.
  • April 11 – Heading into the last weekend of the season, the best NBA Championship odds in the West belong to the Thunder (+165) and Warriors (+1300), while the Celtics (+215) and Cavs (+650) are leading the charge in the East.
  • March 5 – For the first time all season, the Boston Celtics are not favorites to win the NBA Championship. The Thunder are now averaging just +193 to win their first NBA title.
  • February 1 – The Lakers and Mavericks completed a blockbuster trade on Saturday night, with Luka Doncic heading to LA for Anthony Davis. The Lakers’ Title odds improved to +2000, while the Mavs faded to +3000.
  • June 18 – Boston is a +301 favorite, on average, to win its second straight NBA Championship, with second-favorite Denver back at +740. Minnesota (+860), Dallas (+930), and OKC (+930) round out the top-five favorites.
