We're into the stretch run of the NBA season, with the latest NBA win totals markets shifting as there are about 20 games left for each team in the season.

The Oklahoma City Thunder — despite some recent stumbles and injuries to stay players — still have the highest projected win total (and are the only team projected North of 60 wins), followed by the Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs, while the Washington Wizards, Indiana Pacers, Brooklyn Nets, and Sacramento Kings (the only team projected for fewer than 20 wins) are expected to finish in the basement. 

Here are the latest NBA win totals odds for every team over the remainder of the season.

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.
