Odds News: How to Bet on the NBA and Los Angeles Lakers
Moneyline Bets: Moneyline bets involve picking the outright winner of the game without any point spread. For example, if the Lakers are listed at -170 against the New Orleans Pelicans, you would need to bet $170 to win $100 if the Lakers win [3]. Conversely, a +143 moneyline for the Pelicans means a $100 bet would win you $143 if the Pelicans win.
