With training camps opening for the 2026-27 season, every NBA team is ranked by its chances to win the 2027 championship.

The article notes a busy offseason with several star players changing teams and key players returning from injury.

Expanded Detail

San Antonio leads preseason championship odds for 2027, with Oklahoma City, New York, Minnesota and Philadelphia next. Training camps for 2026-27 open by Monday, following an offseason full of star movement and injury returns.

The Knicks won the 2026 title over the Spurs in five games, ending a 53-year drought. The league has had eight different champions since 2019, and no team has repeated or reached consecutive Finals in that stretch.

Context

The rankings may shape fan discussion and media narratives as the season begins, influencing ticket demand, merchandise interest, and local expectations in cities with top-ranked teams. Players and coaches could face added pressure from heightened championship talk, while fans in rebuilding markets may focus on development and future flexibility. The offseason’s star relocations may also shift regional allegiances and national TV appeal, though actual outcomes will depend on health, chemistry, and playoff performance.
