The Milwaukee Bucks captured the NBA Cup and have won 13 of their last 16 games, yet they remain championship longshots with +1700 odds at DraftKings.
In the NBA Cup title game, the Bucks dominated the Oklahoma City Thunder, 97-81. However, OKC is still the second betting favorite with +370 odds.
The Bucks opened the season with eight losses in their first 10 games. But they seem to have sorted out their issues and solidified their rotation.
One playful storyline centers around Bucks assistant Darvin Ham. After running the table (8-0) last year as head coach of the Lakers, Ham is now 14-0 in NBA Cup games.
