LeBron James and Stephen Curry have dominated NBA discourse for over a decade. Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets) has won the NBA MVP award multiple times and is widely considered the most complete player in the game. Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs), the French centre drafted first overall in 2023, has quickly emerged as the most unique talent in basketball. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Oklahoma City Thunder) won the 2024/25 MVP award and led the Thunder to the 2025 NBA title.

The EuroLeague is the premier European basketball club competition, featuring 20 clubs from countries including Spain, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, Israel, Germany and France. Teams play a full 38-game home-and-away regular season. The top six go straight into the playoffs and two more qualify through a play-in, and the four winners of the best-of-five playoff series reach the Final Four weekend, held at a single arena in May. By the end of the 2025/26 season the most decorated clubs were Real Madrid (11 titles), CSKA Moscow (8), Panathinaikos (7) and Maccabi Tel Aviv (6), while Olympiacos won their fourth title in 2026.

The FIBA Basketball World Cup is the premier international basketball tournament held every four years. The 2023 World Cup in the Philippines, Japan and Indonesia was won by Germany, who beat Serbia in the final. The United States, Spain and France are historically the strongest national teams. The World Cup serves as a qualifier for the Olympic Games basketball tournament.

March Madness is the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament, a single-elimination 68-team tournament played every March and April to determine the US college basketball champion. It is one of the most popular sporting events in the United States, with millions of Americans filling in tournament brackets. The first and second rounds produce frequent upsets, with 15 and 16 seeds occasionally defeating top seeds. The Final Four weekend is a national event watched by tens of millions.

Basketball is a popular betting sport in the UK, particularly for NBA matches. Main markets include match winner (moneyline), point spread (handicap), total points over/under, first team to score a set number of points, and player prop bets (points scored, rebounds, assists). NBA betting peaks during the playoffs and Finals. Leading UK bookmakers offer basketball markets. 18+ only.

The point spread (handicap) is the most popular NBA betting market. The favourite gives points to the underdog: a spread of -7.5 means the favourite must win by 8 or more points for the bet to win. The underdog at +7.5 can lose by up to 7 points and still win the spread bet. NBA spreads are set to create an even betting proposition, typically around -110 odds on both sides.

Over/under (totals) betting asks whether the combined total points scored by both teams will be above or below a set line. NBA totals are typically set between 215 and 240 combined points. Factors to consider include both teams' pace of play, defensive efficiency ratings, injury status of key scorers and whether this is a back-to-back game. EuroLeague totals are typically set much lower, in the range of 140 to 165 combined points.

The Boston Celtics have won the most NBA Championships with 18 titles. The Los Angeles Lakers have 17. The Golden State Warriors (7), Chicago Bulls (6), San Antonio Spurs (5) and Miami Heat (3) round out the historically successful franchises. The Boston Celtics won their 18th title in 2024, overtaking the Lakers for outright first place in NBA championship history.

The Liga ACB (Asociacion de Clubs de Baloncesto) is Spain's top professional basketball league, widely considered the strongest league in Europe outside the NBA. Real Madrid Basketball and FC Barcelona are the dominant forces, both regularly competing in the EuroLeague and ACB simultaneously. Valencia Basket, Baskonia, Gran Canaria and Unicaja Malaga also compete at the top level. The ACB season runs from October to May.

The NBA Draft is held every June and consists of two rounds of 30 picks each (60 picks total). Teams receive picks based on a weighted lottery system that gives worse teams better odds at the top picks. The draft is the primary way for college and international players to join the NBA. Victor Wembanyama was the first overall pick in 2023, Cooper Flagg was the first overall pick in 2025, both immediately transforming their respective franchises.
