The Los Angeles Lakers are NBA Champions once again. Their win in Game 6 on Sunday over the Miami Heat marked the first time the franchise has won the NBA Finals since 2010.
And the Lakers are expected to repeat as NBA Champions in 2021.
Following Los Angeles’ win, BetMGM’s sportsbook released its odds for 2021 NBA Finals winners. The Lakers (+400) are the favorites to win it all, with the Los Angeles Clippers (+500) and Milwaukee Bucks (+500) right behind them.
Next in line are the Golden State Warriors (+800), along with the Brooklyn Nets (+800) and Miami Heat (+800).
When it comes to winning the 2021 Eastern Conference Finals, BetMGM‘s moneyline on the Bucks is +200 while the Nets and Heat are both at +400. The Boston Celtics aren’t far away with a +450 moneyline. After Boston, it’s a pretty significant drop-off to the next team (Toronto Raptors at +750).
