For decades, the NBA has delivered the highest level of excitement with highlight-reel dunks, wild finishes, and mind-boggling plays from Joel Embiid, Steph Curry, LeBron James, Nikola Jokić, and the best athletes in the world.

The star-studded league always finds a new way to entertain and keeps fans glued to basketball odds at the sportsbook.

When you spot a favorable number for a game, future, or player prop, add the wager to your betting slip.

For example:

You might like the Denver Nuggets to beat the Philadelphia 76ers but are unsure of the scoring margin. Instead of betting the spread (Nuggets -3.5), you bet the moneyline (Nuggets -150), meaning the bet will cash if Jamal Murray and Denver win the game by any margin.

A $100 bet on the Nuggets -150 has a potential payout of $166.67 (including stake).

Whether you’re a first-time bettor building a moneyline NBA parlay, a casual fan checking out player props, or a longtime diehard using a sports betting promotion, there’s something for everyone at BetMGM.

NBA Moneylines

Moneylines are the simplest type of bet at the sportsbook.

You’re betting on the winner of the game. The margin of victory doesn’t matter, nor does the point total or individual stats.

For example:

If you bet $100 on the Chicago Bulls’ moneyline (-120) against the Detroit Pistons, the Bulls must win the game (in regulation or overtime) to cash the bet. If the Bulls win, you’d receive $183.33 (including stake).

Alternatively, you could bet $100 on the Pistons’ moneyline (+100) in the same game. If the Pistons win, you’d receive $200 (including stake).

NBA Parlays

With over 1,500 preseason, regular-season, and postseason games each season, there are nonstop opportunities for NBA parlays.

Parlays are an opportunity to add more importance to each fast break, free-throw attempt, and buzzer-beating heave.

You can combine multiple bets from one game (i.e., Same Game Parlay), multiple games, or multiple sports. By doing so, your excitement increases, as does the potential payout if all bets hit.

Live NBA Betting

Live sports betting is an incredible way to take your NBA betting to the next level.

With updated live betting odds available each game, live basketball betting is an exhilarating option for any bettor to leverage their hoops and betting knowledge into bigger payouts.

As you watch Curry and the Golden State Warriors on TV, stream a Phoenix Suns game on your computer, or watch Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics from your seats at TD Garden, you can place live bets on the NBA.

NBA Championship Odds

NBA championship odds are available throughout the offseason, regular season, and postseason.

You can bet on a repeat championship for Jokić and the Nuggets, a breakthrough for Tatum and the Celtics, or a title for any other team.

From favorites to long shots, the sportsbook has you covered for NBA Finals betting this year.
