2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup Odds & Picks: Germany vs. Japan
Germany vs. Japan
Team Germany gave the United States a scare earlier this week. They almost defeated USA, but ended up losing 99-91. Franz Wagner and Dennis Schroder have been the two heavy contributors. This team also has Moritz Wagner and Daniel Theis, who still play in the NBA. They'll take on a Japanese team whose best player is Keisei Tominaga from Nebraska. He hasn't even willed Nebraska to the top half of the Big Ten throughout his career. He's a lethal shooter and is a tremendous basketball player. But it'll take more than him. Germany should roll over this Japan team, especially after we just watched Japan lose to Slovenia 103-68.
Pick: Germany -18.5 (-112)

Understanding the Rules
FIBA basketball differs slightly from NBA rules, impacting gameplay and, by extension, betting strategies. Some key differences include a shorter game length (40 minutes instead of 48), a longer three-point line, and different foul regulations. Make sure to familiarize yourself with these rules before placing your bets.
