We're a week into the new NBA season, giving us a bit of data for looking at the latest NBA win totals markets.
It's no surprise that the Oklahoma City Thunder — who finally suffered their first loss of the season — have the highest projected win total, followed by the Cleveland Cavaliers and Denver Nuggets, while the Brooklyn Nets and Washington Wizards are expected to finish in the basement.
Here are the latest NBA win totals odds for every team over the remainder of the season.
The Golden State Warriors made history twice during the 2015-16 season when they became the first team to win 73 regular-season games — and the first team to lose an NBA Finals after taking a 3-1 lead.
Season win totals are self-explanatory: betting on how many wins a team will have that regular season.
Oddsmakers set a projected number of wins for each team — based on past success, returning personnel and a variety of intangible factors — and offer Over/Under betting options, allowing you to wager on if a team will exceed that win total (Over) or fall short of it (Under). This total includes regular-season games only.
For example, if oddsmakers calculate the Charlotte Hornets to win around 35 games this upcoming season, they would set the Over/Under at 35.5. Thus, if Charlotte wins 35 or fewer games, they cash the Under. If Charlotte wins 36 or more games in the given season, they cash the Over.
Over 35.5 wins (-110)
Under 35.5 wins (-110)
On top of the season win total itself, some oddsmakers may set an assigned cost to the Over and Under bets — also known as vig or juice — depending on the implied probability of the team winning more or less than that total.
Season win totals are considered futures betting odds, and sportsbooks will take action on season win totals from the time they post the odds until the start of the season. Futures bets are then graded at the end of the season when all results are final.

NBA win totals betting trends
- 2022-23 was the first time in the past 18 regulation-length NBA seasons that a team failed to win 60 games. The Celtics won 64 last year to start the trend anew.
- A team from the Western Conference has had the NBA's best record in nine of the last 13 seasons.
- Recent trends suggest that the West produces more 50-win teams than the East, at an average of 5.0 over the past 13 regulation-length seasons, compared to 3.15.

How to bet NBA regular season wins totals
Season win totals are self-explanatory: betting on how many wins a team will have that regular season.
Oddsmakers set a projected number of wins for each team — based on past success, returning personnel and a variety of intangible factors — and offer Over/Under betting options, allowing you to wager on if a team will exceed that win total (Over) or fall short of it (Under). This total includes regular-season games only.
For example, if oddsmakers calculate the Charlotte Hornets to win around 35 games this upcoming season, they would set the Over/Under at 35.5. Thus, if Charlotte wins 35 or fewer games, they cash the Under. If Charlotte wins 36 or more games in the given season, they cash the Over.

Under 35.5 wins (-110)
On top of the season win total itself, some oddsmakers may set an assigned cost to the Over and Under bets — also known as vig or juice — depending on the implied probability of the team winning more or less than that total.
