Each price is the longest any book posts, with that book's logo; hover a price for every book's quote. Market is each book's board de-vigged to 100% and averaged across books. Ours is the Statz model: 10,000 simulations of the whole season over the team ratings behind our game projections, play-in and best-of-seven playoffs included, run 2026-10-29. Before tip-off those ratings are set to the strength the market's win totals imply; our own read of each team takes over as its games are played. ▲ means our chance beats the market's by at least a point of probability; ▼ means the market rates it higher than we do. Player awards are priced by the books only.

Championship odds for all thirty teams, with the bookmaker's margin stripped out so the numbers read as probabilities rather than prices. An outright board always adds up to more than a hundred per cent - the excess is the book's hold - so the de-vigged column is the one to compare across teams. Prices come from the live outright market and refresh as the board moves.

Frequently asked

Raw outright prices imply probabilities that sum to well over one hundred per cent, because the book builds in its margin. De-vigging scales them back to sum to one hundred, which is what makes two teams' chances comparable.
