Atlantic Division Winner Betting Odds

How to Bet on NBA Division Odds

In the Atlantic Division, the Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers, Brooklyn Nets, Toronto Raptors, and New York Knicks battle in what is known as one of the most competitive divisions in the Eastern Conference. If you want to wager on the Atlantic Division winner, focus on the current trends, team form, and ever-changing odds.

By nature, NBA future bets can take several months to play out. If you place your bet in September or October, you’ll likely have to wait until the season’s end for the final result. Sportsbooks post NBA Atlantic Division future odds long before the pre-season begins. These odds typically change throughout the preseason, regular season, and playoffs as experts and the public track each team’s progress and current form. Something like an injury to a key player, a hot streak, or a losing streak can cause the odds to fluctuate.

There are several key moments throughout the season that can impact betting odds:

• Preseason Predictions: Teams are often ranked based on offseason acquisitions, past performance, and expert analysis.
• Trade Deadlines: High-profile trades or injuries can change the balance of power within a division.
• Playoff Push: As teams fight for playoff spots, odds may shift based on the chances of finishing the season strong.

Most US sportsbooks will display NBA Atlantic Division odds as American odds, where you can see how much you’ll win using symbols and a three-digit number. A minus symbol means the numbers show how much you must wager to win $100. Meanwhile, a plus symbol indicates how much you can profit from a $100 bet.

Most betting markets will feature futures displayed in plus odds until a clear favorite emerges, although sometimes this happens before the season starts if one franchise is expected to dominate.
