Looking for some opportunities to put your new-found betting knowledge into practice?

First, you need to put in the work.

To make a profit when betting on Prop Bets, a lot of research is required. And in a sport like the NBA, data matters. It matters a lot.

Look into a player’s league form, how they match-up against certain opponents, and how they perform against a certain team or at a particular league venue. In elite-level sport, the tiniest edge can have a significant impact, especially when considering the narrow betting lines.

For example, say you have backed LeBron James to score more than 32.5 points against the Golden State Warriors, a point or two could be the difference. It’s a high line. But this is LeBron James. He’s capable. The difference could be how many shots he gets off against this particular defence. Or how much space he’s allowed to shoot from the edge of the arc.

Much like a betting handicap in basketball, or any other market, NBA prop odds are set by knowledgeable traders, all of whom use experience and industry practices to provide fair prices to customers. Like any other type of sports betting, there are certain factors that influence the odds and ultimately impact the potential payout.

Stats, such as a player's scoring average, assists per game, rebounds per game, and other individual performance metrics, are used by oddsmakers to determine the likelihood of a certain event happening within a game.

Teams that have strong chemistry and play well together are more likely to have successful outcomes, which can influence the odds for individual player prop bets.

Other factors, including recent injury record, divisional standings, and match-up history also comes into the odds-making procedure.
