Tuesday’s Best NBA First Basket Player Prop Bets: Wizards vs. Magic
(Odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook)
Wizards vs. Magic
There are two parts to first-basket betting. The first part is winning the first possession. Tonight, the Orlando Magic have the advantage of winning the first possession. The Magic and Wizards have split the first possession during their games this year. The Magic have been the more consistent team in all aspects. That gives them the advantage.
Paolo Banchero is too good for the Wizards to defend. The Magic will get him involved early and often. That gives him betting value to score the first basket. Banchero has too many skills for the Wizards to stop during this matchup.
Bet: Paolo Banchero +450
