Basketball betting tips
Back-to-backs lower totals
Teams on the second night of back-to-back games tend to score less and rest players. Check the schedule before you take an over.
Quarters differ from the full game
Benches play more in the second and fourth quarters, so quarter spreads don't always follow the full-game line.
Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
4 questions
What is a point spread in basketball betting?
A point spread gives the underdog a head start. If the line is -6.5 on the favourite, they have to win by 7 or more for the bet to win. A bet on the underdog at +6.5 wins if they win or lose by 6 or fewer.
Does overtime count in basketball bets?
Money line, spread and total bets on the full game include overtime unless the market says regulation time only. Quarter and half markets do not include overtime.
When are NBA games played in Indian time?
Most NBA games tip off between about 5:00 AM and 9:00 AM IST, so the live book is busiest in the Indian morning.
Can I bet on player props?
Yes. Points, rebounds, assists, three-pointers and combined stat lines are available for NBA and EuroLeague games.
