2025 NBA championship odds: Thunder favored in tilt with Pacers

It’s time for the NBA Finals.

Here’s a look at the NBA title odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of June 1, now that the postseason has reached the championship stage.

2025 NBA Finals odds

Oklahoma City Thunder: -700 (bet $10 to win $11.43 total)
Indiana Pacers: +500 (bet $10 to win $60 total)

So far, the OKC has shown why it was the best team in the NBA in the regular season. 

The Thunder swept Memphis in the first round, then grinded out a seven-game series victory over Denver, before blasting Minnesota in the Western Conference finals in five games. 

In short, OKC can blow teams out or beat teams close.

The Thunder will now return to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2012, where Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden lost to the LeBron James and Dwyane Wade-led Miami Heat in five games.

In the East, Indiana blew past Milwaukee in five games in Round 1, before doing the same to top-seeded Cleveland in Round 2.

Then, in the Eastern Conference finals, the Pacers beat the Knicks 4-2 to set up a Finals tilt with OKC.

The Pacers have never won an NBA title. The Oklahoma City franchise won when it was in Seattle in 1979, but has yet to win a title in OKC.

The two teams faced off twice in the regular season. The Thunder won at Indiana 12-114, and won in Oklahoma City 132-111.
