NBA Betting: Beware of the Upset
Nick Crain | 11/23/22
When it comes to the NBA, anything can happen. The level of talent across the league is as high as it has ever been, which means even the bottom teams have the ability to pull off an upset on any given night. While the ProFitX Sports Probability Platform (SPP) is over 75% accurate when it comes to picking the winner of each game, there’s always outliers to be aware of. All it takes is one player having a solid night to completely change the outlook of a contest.
As a sports bettor, it’s all about being equipped to make the most informed decision. This includes understanding which teams pull off unexpected wins. Every year, there’s teams that defy the odds and perform at a higher level than expected.
To this point in the season, there’s a handful of teams that have won more games than projected, but there’s also squads that have dropped uncharacteristic games.
Here’s some of the top teams to this point as it relates to winning as an underdog.
- Utah Jazz: 10-3
- Washington Wizards: 4-4
- Indiana Pacers: 4-5
- Oklahoma City Thunder: 6-8
Analyzing these teams that pull off upsets, the theme tends to be young rising talent. While inexperienced, rebuilding teams will likely finish the year with a poor record, they’re still tough to beat on a night-to-night basis.
As such, teams like the Jazz, Wizards, Thunder and Pacers need to be on bettors’ radars when picking winners on their nightly slate of games.
Within the SPP, it’s easy to gain insight into these teams that could unexpectedly pull off a victory.
Understanding who is active and healthy enough to play along with which different rotations work best, it’s clear how teams could have an edge on any given night. Chemistry and synergy is a big deal, so knowing who’s suiting up and could play together is key.
Overall, leveraging ProFitX insights can equip any bettor with the information needed to win big and choose the right winners. With just a few clicks, they can gain an edge over Vegas.
