We're looking at the NBA Play-In Tournament odds from our best NBA betting sites for which teams will make the Eastern and Western Conference Play-In Tournaments.

The SoFi Play-In Tournament will take place from April 16-19. Seeds 7 through 10 in each conference will have the opportunity to play their way into the final two playoff positions ahead of the first round.

The teams we don't see listed here are those who're top contenders by the NBA championship odds. They'd need to take a serious fall down the NBA standings to be in danger of needing to play their way into the postseason.

What is the NBA Play-In Tournament?

The NBA play-in tournament determines the final two seeds from each conference in the NBA playoffs, as only the top six seeds are guaranteed a spot. In the past, the top eight seeds were guaranteed a spot, but now the teams that rank ninth or 10th in the standings can play their way into the playoffs. 

NBA Play-In Tournament format

The ninth and 10th seeds will face off, with the winner of that game having the opportunity to steal the eighth seed from the loser of the game featuring the seventh and eighth seed.

You need to win only one game to make the playoffs if you finish the regular season as the seventh or eighth seed. For a team to qualify for the playoffs if it finishes ninth or 10th in its respective conference, two games must be won.
