The NBA playoffs are so far off, but that hasn't stopped oddsmakers from releasing the opening odds for each team to make the playoffs in the 2024-25 season.

The Boston Celtics and Oklahoma City Thunder have the best odds to each the postseason, but there are several teams in each conference that are on the bubble -- thanks to the NBA's play-in tournament keeping the end of the season interesting.

There could be some value on the board in taking a team that could fight into that play-in field, and we already have somewhat of an idea of who will be in that mix based on the opening win totals for every team.

While I'll personally wait to later in the offseason to start dabbling in the futures market, it's always good to see where each team starts to be able to denote any interesting odds movement as the 2024-25 season approaches.
