Vegas is all-in on the Los Angeles Lakers.
After it was reported Saturday that Los Angeles had agreed to a deal to acquire Anthony Davis from the New Orleans Pelicans, Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook gave the Lakers' odds for next season a modest bump from 9/2 to 3/1.
The Lakers were already given the best odds to win the 2020 NBA title following news of the long-term injuries to impending Golden State Warriors free agents Klay Thompson and Kevin Durant earlier this week.
The Milwaukee Bucks and LA Clippers trail the Lakers at 6/1 and 7/1, respectively. The defending champion Toronto Raptors were given 10/1 odds to go back-to-back.
