The Los Angeles Lakers title odds moved from 22-1 to 10-1 at Caesars Sportsbook since free agency opened on Thursday.
The Lakers have also attracted 3.5 times more bets than any other team since Wednesday. DraftKings also echoed the popularity of bets made on the Lakers.
The Nets’ odds decreased from 15-2 to 35-1 at Caesars following the news of Kevin Durant’s trade request, and may drop even lower.
The Nets were the consensus favorite to win the NBA title at the start of last season.
