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. BULLS +9.5 (-105)
Odds: -105Probability: 54.1%Edge: 2.8%Game: Bulls vs Bucks (8PM EST)
Our Basketball Forever betting bot has uncovered the best bet of the day, taking place in the Bulls vs Bucks matchup. These two teams met four times last season, with the Bulls covering the number in 75% of those matchups. They look rejuvenated with a healthy Zach Lavine, and should have enough offense to keep this a single digit game.
Our Basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Bulls +9.5 with a 54.1% probability. This line is showing -105 odds and a 2.8% edge making this is our best bet of the day.

2. LAKERS MONEYLINE (-120)
Odds: -120Probability: 57.6%Edge: 3%Game: Suns vs Lakers (10PM EST)
Our Model has determined one of the best NBA bets for Friday’s game slate, setting its sights on the matchup between the Suns and Lakers. Our Basketball forever betting bot has pinpointed Lakers Moneyline as the play in tonight’s NBA slate. The Lakers won the season series 3-2 last year, and they match up well against a ball-dominant Phoenix team. They looked good in game one when they downed Minnesota despite shooting the ball inefficiently. Both these points contribute to a likely Lakers win tonight in their second game of the season.
The Basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Lakers Moneyline, at -120 odds and a 3% edge with a probability of 57.6%.

3. PISTONS +10.5 (-105)
Odds: -105Probability: 54.6%Edge: 3.4%Game: Pistons vs Cavaliers (7:30PM EST)
Our last best bet that our Basketball Forever betting bot has uncovered takes us to Cleveland where the Pistons and Cavaliers face off. Last season, the Pistons and Cavs played against each other in four games, with the Pistons able to cover the spread in all four of them. The Pistons are still cellar dwellers this season, and in ‘capture the Flagg’ mode, but they did actually bolster around the edges with a few key name additions in the off-season. In addition, Cade Cunningham looks ready to take a leap, and matchups like these will allow him to continue to grow as their floor general. Expect it to be a single digit game.
Our basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Pistons +10.5 with an edge of 3.5% and -105 odds.
