The Oklahoma City Thunder are riding high after delivering the franchise's first NBA championship since relocating to OKC.

Below, our NBA experts break down the Thunder's betting odds, win total pick, and best NBA futures bet for the 2025-26 season.

๐ฐ Thunder win total prediction
Here's why our NBA expert Corey Scott expects the Thunder to finish Under 62.5 wins as one of his NBA win total predictions for the 2025-26 season:
⬇️ Under 62.5 wins
The Thunder are the best team in the NBA, but this number is a bit high. While Oklahoma City won 68 games last season, itโs expected to take a step back after winning the championship. The last NBA team to win 63 or more games following an NBA Finals victory was the 73-win Warriors in 2015-16 - I don't see that ceiling just yet.
โ Prediction: Under 62.5 wins (-110 via BetMGM)
๐ฎ Best Thunder futures bet
Here's why our NBA expert Liam Fox is betting on Jalen Williams to win NBA Finals MVP as one of his best NBA futures bets for the 2025-26 season:
🏆️ Jalen Williams to win NBA Finals MVP
It's not often you can recommend a bet at 50/1 odds. But for a dominant Thunder squad that leads the NBA championship odds again, we know Williams will deliver in a series if Shai-Gilgeous Alexander is swamped with double-teams from the opposing squad.
โ Best bet: Jalen Williams to win NBA Finals MVP (+5000 via bet365)
