Popular NBA Betting Markets in Massachusetts
While Massachusetts sportsbook apps are expanding their NBA market depth and variety as betting on the sport rises in popularity, there are a few markets that get the majority of attention. Here are some of the most popular markets and NBA odds in Massachusetts.
NBA Championship
Some sportsbooks, like BetMGM Massachusetts, will allow you to wager on the exact matchup of the NBA Finals but every operator has the championship winner. This can be a lucrative market depending on the timing of your wager as future odds can fluctuate dramatically throughout the season.
Eastern Conference Champion
Will Boston be able to win back-to-back Eastern Conference Championships? Or will another team represent the East in the Finals?
Western Conference Champion
The Western Conference feels more open this year compared to the Eastern Conference. The Thunder have jumped out as the early betting favorites for the West, but the Nuggets, T'Wolves, and Mavs are all close behind as strong contenders.
NBA MVP Award Winner
Nikola Jokic has won three of the last four NBA MVPs and is currently in the running for the award once again this season. Jaylen Brown swept the awards for the playoff MVP awards last season and those markets will open once the postseason slate is set.
Today's NBA Odds
With over 1,200 total regular season NBA games played, there are plenty of opportunities for basketball fans to get in on the action. Here is a list of upcoming NBA games and their betting lines across the three main markets (moneyline, spread, and total).
NBA Betting Promotions
New users can take advantage of multiple Massachusetts sportsbook promos when betting on the NBA. With different types of bonuses available, you will be able to find a welcome offer that fits your needs. First bet insurance is fantastic for bettors of all experience levels, but especially those who may be newer to NBA betting or the sport in general. Bet-and-get offers are our favorite, as you'll receive bonus bets just for signing up and making a bet.

Are There NBA Bonuses for Existing Users?
Yes, existing users will have access to bonuses as well. Sportsbooks will offer these regularly, especially at the beginning of the season and surrounding big-time matchups.

In general, most ongoing offers will fall under one of the following categories:
