Another exciting day of basketball is upon us – with many attractive options to bet on across tonight’s NBA slate. With the help of advanced simulations and machine learning, our Basketball Forever bot has expertly pinpointed our best basketball bets for Friday, October 25, 2024.
TODAY’S TOP VOAT PICKS
1. DONOVAN MITCHELL OVER 3+ 3PM
– Mitchell has always been a shooter, and our model is projecting Mitchell to finish tonight’s game with 3.4 3PM. He went 2/5 from three on Wednesday against Toronto, and our Basketball Forever betting bot predicts that he’ll go on better tonight against the Pistons.
2. DARIUS GARLAND OVER 6+ AST
– Throughout his career Garland has turned into a very serviceable playmaker. After covering this number in Cleveland’s blowout win over the Raptors, expect Garland to keep dealing in this one.
3. TRAE YOUNG OVER 10+ AST
– Young has been an absolute demon on the offensive side of the ball his entire career, and he seems to be morphing even further into a pass first point guard, with a much better supporting cast around him this season. He averaged 10.8 APG in 23/24, and after having already racked up 12 in the Hawks first game of the season, he should cover this line.
4. DEVIN BOOKER OVER 6+ AST
– If the Suns first game of the season is anything to go by, Booker is going to act as a solid 1-2 punch with Kevin Durant this season. He is a more than capable passer, and it’s an element of his game that has come a long way over the last two seasons. Our model projects that Booker will end up with a total of 6.7 assists in tonight’s game against the Lakers. We recommend taking Devin Booker Over 6+ AST.
5. D’ANGELO RUSSELL OVER 6+ AST
– The last VOAT pick that we have for you today is D’angelo Russell Over 6+ AST. Our Basketball Forever Betting bot is projecting D’Russ to end with a total of 6.5 AST and a probability of 55.8%
1. DRAYMOND GREEN OVER 5.5 TOTAL ASSISTS (-115)
Odds: -115
Probability: 66.7%
Projection: 8.8
Edge: 13.2%
Game: Warriors vs Jazz (9:30PM EST)
Our Basketball Forever betting bot has uncovered the best bet of the day. Taking us all the way to Salt lake City, where we’re locked in on the Warriors vs Jazz matchup. In this game, our betting bot has its eyes set on Draymond Green Over 5.5 AST. Green has yet to average less than 6APG in over nine seasons. The Jazz were pretty bad defensively in their first game of the season, and this should be a high-scoring, offense laden game of basketball.
Our Basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Draymond Green Over 5.5 AST with -115 odds and a 13.2% edge, making this our best bet of the day.
2. KARL-ANTHONY TOWNS UNDER 10.5 TOTAL REBOUNDS (+110)
Odds: +110
Probability: 63.8%
Projection: 8
Edge: 16%
Game: Pacers vs Knicks (7:30PM EST)
The next best bet that our Basketball Forever betting bot has uncovered takes place in the Pacers vs Knicks game, focusing in on Karl-Anthony Towns Under 10.5 total Rebounds. Throughout the 23/24 season Towns averaged 8.3 REBS per game. He only secured seven boards in their first game against the Celtics, and the nature of tonight’s contest suggests that it’ll be a lot of guard rebounds leading the break, and KAT should go under this number as a result.
Our model highly recommends wagering on Karl-Anthony Towns Under 10.5 Total Rebounds, with +110 odds and a 63.6% probability.
3. JUSUF NURKIC OVER 3.5 TOTAL ASSISTS (+130)
Odds: +130
Probability: 63.1%
Projection: 5.9
Edge: 19.6%
Game: Suns vs Lakers (10PM EST)
Another +EV bet that our Basketball Forever betting bot found takes us to LA where the Suns and Lakers go at it tonight at 10PM EST. In this matchup, our model narrowed down Jusuf Nurkic Over 3.5 assists as another one of our top bets for today. The Suns big man registered 4APG last season, and when matched up against the Lakers, this number jumped up to 4.6 APG. He has some of the best scorers in the league around him, so he just needs shots to fall to cover this number.
Our basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Jusuf Nurkic Over 3.5 Total Assists with a 19.6% edge and +130 odds.
4. AUSTIN REAVES OVER 4.5 TOTAL ASSISTS (+114)
Odds: +114
Probability: 60%
Projection: 6.3
Edge: 13.2%
Game: Suns vs Jazz (10PM EST)
According to our model, the last best player prop bet for the NBA tonight features Austin Reaves in the Suns vs Lakers showdown. Our betting bot has found value in Austin Reaves Over 4.5 Total Assists.
This game should be fast-paced, and up-and-down. Reaves looks set to take on more of a floor general role this season as LeBron continues to age (and drop in usage), and in high offense games like these, Reaves’ over in assists is always a good play.
Our Basketball Forever betting bot highly recommends wagering on Austin Reaves Over 4.5 Total Assists, with a detected edge of 13.2% and +114 odds with our model is also recording a probability of 60%.
