Free NBA Picks Explained

Free NBA Picks are NBA predictions made by our team of experts who analyze stats, trends, and matchup data. We provide daily picks, futures, prop bets, and much more. The intent of these articles is to give you a glimpse into the mind of an expert bettor and show you how you should be making decisions when it comes to sports gambling.

These picks are well thought out selections, but by no means are they guaranteed wins. Even the best sports bettors in the world lose a considerable amount of the time. The goal of these articles is to provide you with tools you need to be profitable in the long run. We hope you will use our research methods and combine them with your own knowledge to make smarter NBA betting decisions over the course of the season.

How to Use NBA Picks in Your Betting Strategy

So how can you use our NBA picks to improve your overall betting strategy? Well, we typically offer picks on a weekly basis, so make sure to check out this page and stay up to date before placing your picks each day. Research takes time and we know you are busy, so use our experts research to limit the amount you need to do on your own. Here are some other tips we have to help you improve your overall strategy.

  • Set a Bankroll for Yourself: We recommend narrowing down your daily selection and setting a bankroll for yourself. Have an amount of money set aside that you are comfortable losing and use 1-2% of that on each wager. For example, if you have $1000 set aside for sports betting, place $10 wagers and maybe go up to $20 on the NBA picks you are more confident in. Set daily wager limits for yourself and don’t place wagers just to make up for your losses.
  • Keep Track of Your NBA Picks: Keep an updated document to properly track your wins and loses each day. This will help you better manage your money over the course of the season and stay within your limits. You can also go back and analyze which specific picks were more successful for you and implement that knowledge into your overall strategy.
  • Avoid Blindly Tailing All NBA Betting Picks: As we mentioned before, even the experts are going to be wrong sometimes. Don’t just tail every expert pick you see online. Read the reasoning behind their picks and combine that with your own research and knowledge to determine if it’s worth it.

 What Types of NBA Bets Do Our Picks Cover?

Our NBA picks and best bets cover a wide range of different bets. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular types of bets you’ll find in our NBA best bets and picks.

  • Moneylines: If you are simply looking to wager on which team will win the game, then the moneyline is for you. Betting sites will set odds for each team to win with a minus sign (-) indicating the favourite and a plus sing indicating the underdog (+). The favourite is more likely to win the match, but you will receive a larger payout for correctly wagering on the underdog.
  • Point Spreads: Point spreads are similar to the money line, but they add point stipulations to even things out between the favourite and underdog.
  • Over/Under Picks: There are numerous types of over/under picks for the NBA. The most standard involve wagering on the combined point total for both teams. You can also wager on the totals for each individual team or each quarter specifically.
  • Player props: There are all kinds of player props for NBA betting allowing you to wager on totals for most statistics you can think of. This includes points, assists, rebounds, blocks, steals, turnovers, and first basket scorers.
  • Parlays: Parlays allow you to combine multiple different wagers into one bet slip. Combining the wagers increases your profit margins over betting on each event separately, but it also increases the risk. Each wager must be correct in order to receive any profit at all.

What Factors Do Our Experts Consider When Making NBA Picks?

Our experts each have their own specific process for making NBA picks that includes extensive research and data analysis. Here are some of the most important factors each of our experts consider before making any selections.

  • Team news and injury reports: One of the most important things is to stay up to date on recent news before making any wagers. A betting line may look like a steal at first glance, but some key players may sidelined or performing subpar as of late.
  • Home vs. away performance: Some teams/players have a tendency to perform better or worse under certain conditions, and this knowledge is imperative when it comes to NBA betting. Some players perform better at home vs on the road, some players perform better against specific teams with certain players guarding them, and some players perform better in the playoffs when the pressure is on.
  • Back-to-back games or travel fatigue: Fatigue plays a factor over the course of the 82 game NBA season. Make sure to look at team's recent schedule and understand that players may not perform up to standard during a long road trip or when playing back-to-back games.
  • Betting market movement: Playing the odds is arguably the most important thing when it comes to sports betting. To be profitable over the course of a season, you need to pick and choose the right spots and find favourable odds that will allow you to profit in the long run. Don’t just look for the most likely outcomes to bet on, look for the most favourable odds.
