  • Nikola Jokic +110
  • Jimmy Butler +175
  • Jamal Murray +225
  • Bam Adebayo +2500
  • Michael Porter Jr. +3000
  • Caleb Martin +4000

Caleb Martin is the best bet outside of Nikola Jokic’s +110 odds at legal NBA betting sites to hold the title for most points in the NBA Finals. Martin is a valuable longshot with +4000 odds based on his performance in the Eastern Conference finals.
