New Orleans Pelicans Betting Odds

There is no shortage of news coverage in the Big Easy with a roster containing Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram. Many do not realize that New Orleans has not put together a winning season since 2017-18 and that the franchise has never played deeper than the Conference Semifinals.

The league bent over backwards in the COVID-shortened season of 2019-20, structuring the return to action specifically to give Zion and his Pelicans a shot at a lucrative postseason appearance.

The Pelicans are the most popular bad team in the entire NBA. Without getting poor Zion some help, this franchise will continue to be mediocre. Will 2021-22 finally be the year that puts New Orleans on the map?

New Orleans Pelicans Odds to Win NBA Finals

The Pelicans are (+10000) to hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy in 2021-22. These odds put New Orleans 17th on the list of top title contenders—tied with the Pacers and Knicks.

Many of the teams with the shortest Finals odds reside in the West, making New Orleans the 10th-shortest odds recipient in the Western Conference.

Betting New Orleans Pelicans Futures

Team Futures

The Western Conference is stacked and the Pelicans are receiving the 9th-shortest odds to win the conference title at (+3600).

New Orleans shares the Southwest division with Dallas, Memphis, San Antonio, and Houston. The Pelicans are slated to finish right in the middle, given (+500) odds to win the division behind both the Mavs and Grizzlies.

The Pelicans are expected to be in the 7-10 seed range in the Western Conference, meaning the team is very likely to take part in the play-in tournament. Current odds are (EVEN) for New Orleans to do so.

Individual Futures

The magnificent 21-year-old Zion Williamson has already bloomed into an elite NBA player and is (+4200) to win the MVP this season, the 17th-shortest odds in the league.

Down a little lower on the list is 6th-year forward Brandon Ingram at (+13000), which ties him with players like Kris Middleton and CJ Mccollum.
