Betting on Michigan sports teams

As a large state, there is no shortage of teams to bet on at Michigan betting apps. Michigan features several state universities with teams at the NCAA level, as well as professional teams in the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL. Here is a look at those pro teams, along with their latest championship futures odds (odds taken from FanDuel Sportsbook; last updated August 20, 2025).

Detroit Lions (+1000)

The Lions have historically been one of the NFL's beloved underdog franchises, though the "underdog" tag has been shed in recent years as the team's profile has risen under coach Dan Campbell. When betting on the NFL, Lions fans may want to check their bias, although under Campbell, the Lions have been above average against the spread.

BetMGM is a key partner of the Lions, offering exclusive promos and visible branding at Ford Field.

Detroit Tigers (+950)

Much like the Lions, the Tigers are a team with a deep history that has experienced decades of hard times. As the only MLB team in the state, the dog days of summer present plenty of MLB betting opportunities, from run lines to futures.

The Tigers have held a partnership with BetMGM since 2021.

Detroit Pistons (+3500)

The Pistons are one of the NBA's most storied franchises, and betting interest has gained traction recently with a rebuild. NBA betting markets include same-game parlays, quarter/half spreads, player props, and much more.

DraftKings and FanDuel have both been betting partners of the Pistons since 2020.

Detroit Red Wings (+10000)

The Red Wings are an Original Six NHL franchise with a legendary history. NHL betting comes with wagering on money lines, puck lines, and goalie props, among other markets.

BetMGM's partnership with the Red Wings features in-stadium signage at Little Caesars Arena, as well as fan promotions and sponsored presence on the Red Wings' digital channels.

Betting on college sports in Michigan

College sports betting is fully legal in Michigan, including wagers on in-state teams like Michigan and Michigan State. Uniquely, the state also allows player prop bets on college athletes, making it one of the most flexible markets for college sports betting.
