2024-25 NBA Championship Odds: Knicks Soar Up to New High

The latest blockbuster move by the New York Knicks has betters salivating, as the newest NBA Championship odds have the Knickerbockers at what would be a 30-year high, going all the way back to the Patrick Ewing/Pat Riley days.

The New York Knicks now have the 3rd best odds to win the 2025 NBA Finals.

1. Boston Celtics: +320
2. Oklahoma City Thunder: +700
3. New York Knicks: +750
4. Philadelphia 76ers: +1000
5. Minnesota Timberwolves: +1000

The new-look Knicks now have the third-best betting odds to win the title in 2025 at +750, trailing only the defending champion Boston Celtics (+320) and the crazy-talented young team in OKC (+700).

Coincidentally, tied with the Philadelphia 76ers at fourth is the team with whom the Knicks just pulled off their huge Karl-Anthony Towns/Julius Randle trade, the Minnesota Timberwolves (+1,000).

With captain Jalen Brunson now flanked by Mikal Bridges (obtained in another blockbuster earlier in the summer), KAT, OG Anunoby (re-signed to a long-term deal) and Josh Hart, the Knicks are a new better's darling.

The T-Wolves, meanwhile, have also soared up the charts from where they were at this time last year, and now sport a starting lineup of Randle alongside Anthony Edwards, defensive stalwarts Rudy Gobert and Jaden McDaniels, plus Mike Conley.

Interesting times ahead this season. It can't start soon enough.
