The Celtics are clear favorites to win the 2023 NBA Finals heading into February. This is an important month around the Association with the trade deadline set for Feb. 9 and All-Star Weekend beginning soon after.
Most teams have played 50 games, give or take, at this point of the season and clear tiers have formed in the SI Sportsbook championship futures market despite how flat the standings are after the top teams in either conference.
Boston, which owns the best record in the league and lost in the 2022 Finals, is a +350 favorite at SI Sportsbook to win the title.
