2025 NBA championship odds: Thunder favored; Pacers surge

CHAMPIONSHIP

The for the NBA Finals are heating up.

Here’s a look at the NBA title odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of June 9, now that Game 2 is in the books.

2025 NBA Finals odds

Oklahoma City Thunder: -525 (bet $10 to win $11.90 total)
Indiana Pacers: +400 (bet $10 to win $50 total)

Game 3 odds

Thunder -205, Pacers +170
Thunder -5.5
O/U 228.5

In Game 1 of the Finals, Indiana did what it always does: win in comeback fashion. 

The Pacers trailed by as many as 15 in the fourth quarter, and never led until Tyrese Haliburton nailed a jumpshot with 0.3 seconds left on the clock, giving Indy a 111-110 advantage. 

That would end up being the final score.

Game 2 was a bit of a different story, as the Thunder once again took a big lead — OKC led by as many as 22 in the fourth — but held onto it this time.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 34 for the Thunder and Alex Caruso chipped in 20 off the bench.
