2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup Odds & Picks: Philippines vs. Angola
Philippines vs. Angola
Although the Philippines lost to the Dominican Republic, I still think they've got something with Jordan Clarkson leading the way. Clarkson scored 28 points on 37.5% from the floor. He'll certainly be most of the offense for this team. However, he got some help from other players, including 13 from Dwight Ramos and 17 from June Mar Fajardo off the bench. They'll face Angola, who probably can't keep up offensively. Angola only added 67 points against Italy and scored just 10 points in the fourth quarter of that game. Childe Dundao is a solid three-point shooter for Angola, but no other player made a three and they went 4-for-30 from deep as a team against Italy. I'll back the Philippines here.
Pick: Philippines -8.5 (-108)

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.
