- The Los Angeles Clippers are favored to win the NBA Championship with +275 odds.
- The Los Angeles Lakers have +300 odds to win the Championship.
- The Milwaukee Bucks have +325 odds to win the finals.
LOS ANGELES – As the playoff matchups are just about set with the exception of the play-in games, NBA odds boards have seen a major shift in the NBA Finals odds.
Online sportsbooks now have the Los Angeles Clippers as the new favorites to win the NBA Championship. On Friday, they overtook both the Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks.
Odds To Win The NBA Championship
- Los Angeles Clippers +275
- Los Angeles Lakers +300
- Milwaukee Bucks +325
- Boston Celtics +1000
- Toronto Raptors +1000
- Houston Rockets +1200
- Denver Nuggets +2800
- Portland Trailblazers +2800
- Miami Heat +3300
- Dallas Mavericks +5000
There are a few things that could have led to the Clippers jumping to the top spot.
One of them simply being that their superstar duo of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are prepared to lead them all the way home. Another speculation could be that since the Portland Trailblazers are favored to win the play-in games to go on and face the Lakers, they actually have a chance of dethroning LeBron James in a first-round exit.
It could also be that the Clips are about to go up against a talented but inexperienced Dallas Mavericks team.

Looking at the Lakers’ NBA odds, though they are not far behind, bettors can still bet on them as usual and enjoy a larger payout with it.
These are still the same Lakers led by LeBron James and Anthony Davis, arguably the strongest duo in the league today. Despite having lost to the Clippers twice this season, every NBA fan and bettor knows that LeBron James turns on the heat come playoff time.
As for the Bucks, this should be the go-to bet for bettors to make considering that they have been in and out of the favorite spot since the odds opened.
They are also heavily favored to come out of the Eastern Conference (-140) being that they have the best record in the league. This should be more than enough to sway bettors to bet this way on Milwaukee or even enough to hedge their bet.
