NBA Wager Types

Wager Types Found At NBA Betting Sites

Below you’ll find a list and explanation of the most basic forms of wager types that you could expect to find when betting on the NBA online.

Gamelines: Gamelines consist of the three most popular bets you can make. The moneyline which are odds on the outright winner of the game. There are odds on the spread which is betting on the margin of loss or victory between winner and loser, and the game total which are odds on if the total combined points between both teams will go Over or Under the set number.

Player Props: Player props come in several different forms but you are always betting on one specific player. You can bet on different stat categories for them such as their total points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, made shots, and much more.

Game Props: This gives you a way to bet on the game itself from a different angle that is different than the gamelines. You could bet on quarter lines, odds for each half, alternate betting lines, and any other line that has to do within the game itself.

Parlays: Here you are betting on more than one outcome to happen all under the same bet. You can bet on 2+ events at the same time whether it is two game winner, two player props, two game props, etc. Two legs of a parlay is the minimum you can do so the more you add the higher the odds will go but of course the lower your chances are of hitting.

Futures Odds: Here you are betting on different events within the season and beyond such as NBA finals odds, player awards, and more which all shift based on how the season is progressing.

Live Odds: Live betting odds open up for any NBA game from the moneyline, spread, and game total. The odds will stay live until the game is over or out of reach and you’ll be able to bet on them whenever you feel it is the most profitable.
