Bucks
Thu 21 NovTotal - Over 238.5
The Milwaukee Bucks are slowly climbing their way out of the big hole they fell into to start the season. Giannis Antetokounmpo and co. have won 3 of 4 games, improving to 5-9 on the season which is good enough for 12th in the East. Obviously, that’s still way below expectations, so they’ll need to continue winning. Standing in their way are the 6-9 Chicago Bulls, who actually beat them 133-122 in the first meeting of the season. The point total is an intriguing bet once again here, after we saw 255 pts in the first meeting. Chicago’s defense has been abysmal lately, with 2 of their last 3 opponents scoring 143 and 144 points against them. They play the fastest pace in the NBA, but also have the 6th worse defensive rating, which is a formula for a lot of high scoring games. Betting the over has been very profitable in Bulls games, it has cashed 9 times in their last 13 on the road. Buckle up and prepare your popcorn, this game is going well into the 240s.

Suns
Thu 21 NovTotal - Over 224
Two teams headed in opposite directions meet tonight in Phoenix as the Knicks try to win their 4th game in a row against the Suns who are on a 4-game losing streak. Injuries have taken a toll on the Suns, they’re currently without 2 of their 3 best players and unless Devin Booker has a big scoring night they are out of most games. Meanwhile, the Knicks are clicking on all cylinders, having scored 120+ pts in 3 of 4 games. New York has the 4th best offensive rating in road games this season, but they are also allowing a lot of points and rank just 24th in defensive rating. The Suns’ chances of winning depend on whether or not Devin Booker has a good scoring game. Against the Knicks he’s averaging 27 pts per game in the last 4 meetings, which could be a sign of things to come here. Neither team has impressed with their three-point defense lately, so I’ll be backing the point total to go over here. This bet has landed 4 times in the last 5 meetings and in New York’s last 6 of 8 games on the road.

NBA Over/Under Bets
Examples of NBA Over/Under Betting
Here’s a simple example of Over/Under bets in the NBA:
- Timberwolves vs. Knicks (O/U 213.5, -110). This means if you bet on the over or under and are correct, you’ll win $100 on a $110 bet. The O/U is the combined points for both teams in the NBA game.
To learn more about how these sports bets work check out our full over/under betting guide.
NBA picks by Basketball Experts
We’ve seen a lot of NBA basketball, and we spend time sifting through the data and betting trends to inform ourselves on our free NBA picks of the day and week.
What NBA games can I bet on?
In each regular NBA season there are 1,230 games (82 games per team). That’s an average of about three games per week per team, and on most days of the week there’s at least one game on the NBA schedule.
Sportsbooks offer betting on basketball in the NBA in many ways - click on any of the links below to learn more through our comprehensive guides:
- Team & player futures bets
- Bet on the Spread or Moneyline
- Over/Under (or totals)
- Parlay bets
- Live NBA Betting
Here’s a quick rundown on what each of these types of bets are.
Team Futures NBA
For example, you can bet on whether a team will win more or less than X number of games in the season. Or bet on who will win the NBA Finals before the season starts or weeks or months before the playoffs.
Player Futures Bets
Get odds on which player may win the NBA Most Valuable Player Award, Rookie of the Year, and so on. Or pick the NBA player who will win the scoring title for that season. Some sportsbooks will even let you bet on over/under for triple-doubles for an NBA player. A triple-double is when a player gets double digits in points, assists, and rebounds in the same game.
Spread or Moneyline NBA Bets
The simplest form of game action betting: pick a team to win, either by giving or taking points, or via the moneyline. A favorite is indicated by giving points (-5 for example) and as a Minus sign in the Moneyline (for example: the Lakers are -135 against the Knicks, meaning you win $100 for every $135 you bet on the Lakers to win).
Over/Under
With all the scoring in the NBA, over/under betting can be a fun way to enjoy the action. With this type of bet (also called “Totals” bets), you bet on whether the two teams will go over or under a specified point total. Typically the odds are short, as in -110 or -108 per game.
How to Parlay Bet the NBA
Parlay bets can be thrilling because they offer a big payoff and require a series of events to happen to win your NBA bet. For example:
- NBA team #1 wins by X points AND
- NBA #2 scores 120 points AND
- NBA player X has 15 assists AND
- NBA player Y grabs 12 rebounds AND
- NBA player Z gets a triple double
In the above example, if you get all legs of the parlay correct, SWOOSH you win big. Not all sportsbooks and jurisdictions allow parlay bets, so check offerings in your area.
Live NBA Betting
With Live Betting, you can bet on almost any type of event in an NBA game while it’s being played. Choose which team will get the next three-point field goal, for example. Live betting is a fun way to enhance your viewing of a basketball game. Check your area and favorite sportsbook to make sure live betting on the NBA is permitted where you are.
