  • The Toronto Raptors hold a crucial position in the 2025 NBA Draft with their No. 9 pick.

The Toronto Raptors have the No. 9 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft following a 30-win season.

The Raptors are reportedly open to trading the draft slot, though they’d still technically make a selection for a team at No. 9. That makes things really interesting from a betting perspective.

Khaman Maluach has earned 18.9% of bets for the No. 9 pick, while Noa Essengue has generated 52.3% of the handle.

Take a look at the current NBA odds for the No. 9 overall pick at the BetMGM online sportsbook:
