The Toronto Raptors won the hearts of a nation when they took the NBA by storm this spring. Now on the precipice of free agency, Las Vegas has signaled that they believe the title was a one-off.
Almost immediately after confetti covered the hardwood at Oracle Arena, bookmakers began looking forward to who may win it all in 2020. The Los Angeles Lakers, who didn’t qualify for the 2019 postseason, were early favourites. They remain at the top with the Raptors slotted several spots below. They deserve better.
Different books have their own betting line but they mostly all agree that the Lakers are the frontrunners for a title.
