Smart bettors understand you oftentimes have to gut out some of the less-appealing games on the board. It's where some of the best value lies.
Take the Orlando Magic vs. Detroit Pistons showdown on Saturday for example.
This one features teams a combined 1-9 throughout the early stages of the season; nobody wants to bet them.
Naturally, one of our top-rated NBA betting models crunched the numbers, spitting out just one, lone game on Saturday's board: this one.
This particular trend in our system has cashed at a 55.2% lifetime rate. It most recently called Oklahoma City's outright win as a 5.5-point underdog to the Lakers on Wednesday night.
Here's the model's biggest edge for Saturday, a matchup that will draw the public's interest with the potential debut of No. 1 overall pick Cade Cunningham.
