Pelicans NBA Championship Odds
While bet365 has the Pels' championship odds at +150000, other Louisiana betting apps aren't as kind. DraftKings, for example, has their odds set at +1000000, equating to a 0.01% chance of winning the title. Regardless of which sportsbook you're looking at, New Orleans has the longest odds across the league.
Pelicans Western Conference Odds
The Pelicans' Western Conference odds are at +500000, according to DraftKings. Again, these odds are at the bottom of the conference no matter which app you're pricing the odds at.
Pelicans Playoff Chances
If the playoffs were to start today, the Pelicans would not be in it as they are currently one of the worst teams in the Western Conference. DraftKings and other outlets have removed their playoffs odds, emphasizing the fact that the Pelicans will likely miss the playoffs this season.
Where Can I Bet on the Pelicans?
As long as you are at least 21 years old and located in one of the 55 parishes where sports betting is approved, you can bet on the Pelicans. This includes both online and retail sportsbooks, although not every parish has an in-person location for bettors.
Pelicans Betting Promos
Currently, there are no new user Louisiana betting promos specifically for the Pelicans. Any of the sign up bonuses can be used to bet on the Pelicans and most operators will have ongoing promos to take advantage of, especially during the playoffs. Pels fans can expect to find odds boosts, parlay boosts, and bet insurance offers throughout the NBA postseason.

Pelicans Playoff History
In the 22 seasons that the Pelicans have been an NBA franchise, postseason success has evaded them. The Pelicans have been to the playoffs eight times and have only made it past the first round twice. In those two seasons, they were bounced in the very next round in the conference semifinals.
Have the Pelicans Ever Won Their Division?
The Pelicans have won their division once, which came back in the 2007-2008 season. The Pels have been in last place throughout the season, so winning the division is unlikely.
Pelicans Odds FAQ
The NBA Playoffs have yet to start, but most legal sportsbooks don't believe the Pelicans will make it to the playoffs, as their odds have been completely removed from the boards.
According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Pelicans are +1000000 to win the 2025 NBA Championship. Converting these odds to an implied probability means the Pelicans have a .01 percent chance of winning the NBA title.
The Pelicans currently are the 15th and final seed in the Western Conference. Ultimately, it's been a rough season for the Pelicans, who have dealt with a plethora of injuries and bad play that have hindered their title aspirations.
