NBA Pacific Division Betting Odds 2025
Despite the playoffs being right around the corner, bookmakers continue to feature division betting odds for divisions that haven’t been decided.
The Lakers (44-29) currently lead the Pacific Division by 2.5 games over the Clippers (41-31) and Warriors (41-31).
The Clippers won the division last year, and the Lakers are attempting to reclaim the crown for the first time since the 2019-2020 season when they won the NBA Championship.
We’ll recap below how each team has performed and showcase the odds with less than three weeks remaining in the regular season.
Remember to bet responsibly and keep a watchful eye on your bankroll.
Note: Odds were correct at the time of writing.
How is the Winner Decided?
The winner of the division is decided by the best overall record at the end of the regular season.
If two teams are tied in record, the tiebreaker is head-to-head record followed by record in the division.
In an extremely rare case where statistics continue to be identical, the conference record is then used to separate the two franchises.
NBA Pacific Division Betting Odds
Los Angeles Lakers – Favorites (-300) at FanDuel and DraftKings
The Lakers had built a large lead in the division and were heavy favorites but have faltered over their past 10 games with a 4-6 record.
Luka Doncic has grown comfortable since joining his new team and is filling up the stats sheet, although Lebron James was recently forced into a two-week absence due to a groin injury. He has since returned.
The ship appeared to be steered back in the right direction against the Bulls on March 27, but Josh Giddey hit a half-court buzzer beater, leading Chicago to a 119-117 victory, allowing both the Warriors and Clippers a chance to close the gap.
James and the Lakers are scheduled to play the Warriors in a key matchup on April 3. It will either enable Los Angeles to stretch its lead in the division or move Golden State in a position to make a leapfrog move in the standings.
The -300 odds on FanDuel and DraftKings give Los Angeles 75% implied odds to win the division with limited games remaining.
Golden State Warriors – Making Up Ground (+600) at FanDuel
Many people in the NBA believe the Warriors gave up too much for Jimmy Butler, but for them, it was an “all-in” move to aid aging star Steph Curry in hopes of making a championship run.
The move has worked so far, with Golden State owning a 16-5 record since the trade. They’ve bolted up the Pacific Division standings and trail the Lakers by just 2.5 games.
Since joining the team on February 6, Butler has led the roster in either points, rebounds, or assists on 17 occasions.
It’ll be hard to overcome the Lakers, but with the team’s added depth, anything is possible at +400 (20% implied odds).
The best available price of +600 is available on FanDuel for the Warriors to win the division. Other bookmakers, such as DraftKings, list them at +400.
LA Clippers – Outsiders (+900) at BetMGM
The Clippers have been on a tear, winning eight of their past 10 game,s but are still considered outsiders at 2.5 games back to win the division.
While veterans Kawhi Leonard and James Harden do most of the heavy lifting, aside from Norman Powell, the club isn’t as well-rounded as the Lakers or Warriors.
Los Angeles also has a tough remaining schedule, which also hurts its chances of winning the division.
BetMGM gives the Clippers a 10% chance to overtake the Lakers and Warriors come the end of the season.
