The NBA leader in playoff wins by a team is the purple and gold Los Angeles Lakers with 466. They are followed by their archrival, the Boston Celtics, with 405, and both franchises have won a league-leading 17 championships each. Philadelphia (249), San Antonio (222), and Golden State (212) complete the top-five list of teams with the most victories in the postseason.

These teams’ success in the playoffs has made them  consistent favorites in NBA odds.

On the other hand, the five teams at the bottom of this category are the Toronto Raptors with 57 wins, Memphis Grizzlies with 38 wins, Charlotte Hornets with 23, New Orleans Pelicans with 22, and Minnesota Timberwolves with 20. These teams have a total of 120 wins in the postseason.

Among the five, the Raptors are the most successful team, as they captured one NBA title in 2019 despite the low number of playoff wins.

Below is a table of NBA teams with the most playoff wins.
