The Oklahoma City Thunder — winners of seven straight games — lead the NBA with a projected win total of 65.6... which would require a 21-8 finish to go Over.

Behind them are Eastern Conference leaders Cleveland, who just trail OKC with a 44-10 record and are projected at 63.5 wins now.

The hottest team in the NBA right now is the Denver Nuggets, who have won eight straight and are now up to 52.5 wins, while the NBA Championship favorites (and defending champion) Boston Celtics remain third at 59.5.

Who is projected to have the least wins in the NBA?

The capture the Flagg leaders basement of the NBA standings will also be highly contested, with the Washington Wizards (currently 9-45) at a pathetic 13.5, while right behind the Wiz are the equally tanking Utah Jazz (19.5), followed by the Pelicans and Hornets at 21.5.

How to bet NBA regular season wins totals

Season win totals are self-explanatory: betting on how many wins a team will have that regular season. 

Oddsmakers set a projected number of wins for each team — based on past success, returning personnel and a variety of intangible factors — and offer Over/Under betting options, allowing you to wager on if a team will exceed that win total (Over) or fall short of it (Under). This total includes regular-season games only.

For example, if oddsmakers calculate the Charlotte Hornets to win around 35 games this upcoming season, they would set the Over/Under at 35.5. Thus, if Charlotte wins 35 or fewer games, they cash the Under. If Charlotte wins 36 or more games in the given season, they cash the Over. 

Over 35.5 wins (-110)
Under 35.5 wins (-110)

On top of the season win total itself, some oddsmakers may set an assigned cost to the Over and Under bets — also known as vig or juice — depending on the implied probability of the team winning more or less than that total. 

Season win totals are considered futures betting odds, and sportsbooks will take action on season win totals from the time they post the odds until the start of the season. Futures bets are then graded at the end of the season when all results are final.
