The Milwaukee Bucks ended a 50-year draught by winning the 2021 NBA Championship in six games over the Phoenix Suns.
Trailing the best-of-seven series 0-2, the Bucks went on to win four games in a row both straight-up and against the spread. Over the course of its championship run through the NBA playoffs, Milwaukee needed the full seven games to get past the Brooklyn Nets in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The Nets played that series short-handed with injuries to Kyrie Irving and James Harden as two of their best players. Add in Kevin Durant as one of the few elite players in the league and it is easy to see why Brooklyn has been opened as the favorite to win the NBA title in 2022.
As part of my weekly sports betting coverage for the popular site ScoresandStats.com, I dug deeper into the posted NBA futures odds to win the 2022 championship. While the Nets are a solid play at plus money, there are a few other teams on the board with value in their early odds.
