2 early NBA playoff trends paying off for bettors
We’re less than a week into the 2024 NBA Playoffs, but there are already two betting trends that are standing out and making bettors some cash.
The first is that home teams have been dominating. Home teams won the first 11 games outright, before going 1-2 on Monday night as the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clipper lost. Still, that is a 12-2 record for home teams — and favorites have gone 9-5 against the spread.
The second is that the under has been cashing at a ridiculous clip as well, going 11-3 through the first 14 games. We’ve seen 14 teams (50 percent) score under 100 points in a game through the first four days of the playoffs, and it appears that we’ve reverted back to 1990’s basketball.
As long as the unders keep cashing, bettors will be here for it.
