NBA research checklist for this slate

Basketball markets are driven by minutes, usage and pace, and lineup news can change a number within hours, so the strongest habit is checking who is actually available before comparing prices.

  • Check the final injury report and the expected starters before trusting a points or rebounds number.
  • Compare each player’s minutes in recent games against the minutes the number implies.
  • Look at pace and the likely game script: a lopsided game can cut starters’ minutes.
  • Convert the price you are offered to a break-even probability and compare it with your own estimate.
  • Shop the same number across the books you can legally use, and note the vig.
  • Write down your reason before you place anything, and decide your unit size in advance.

Break-even probability by American price

A price only has value against your own estimate. These are the win rates a bet must reach just to break even at common American prices, before any adjustment for the sportsbook’s margin.
