How to use NBA Top props

Open NBA Top props. Top props takes every NBA player prop posted for tonight and ranks it with one score from 0 to 100. If you only have a few minutes before tip-off, it is the fastest way to see which props have the most going for them.

What the score means

Each prop gets a score from 0 to 100 that blends five things:

• Recent form: how often the player cleared this line over the last 10 games.
• The cushion: how far the player's average sits above or below the line.
• The matchup: how tonight's defense treats the player's position.
• The streak: whether the player is on an active run of clearing it.
• The price: what the best book is paying.

The score puts props in a tier so you can scan quickly:

A high score means the research lines up. It is not a win chance, and it is not a promise. Use it to decide what to look at first.

Your first five minutes

1. Start at the top. The board opens in score order. The first page is the best-supported props on the slate.
2. Pick a market. Use All props to show only points, rebounds, assists, threes or combos like PRA (points + rebounds + assists).
3. Pick a game. Use All games if you only care about one or two matchups tonight.
4. Search. Type a player or team in Player or team to jump straight to them.
5. Open a row. Click any row to open the side panel with the full breakdown behind the score, the player's recent games and the price at every book.
6. Save what you like. Press the heart to save a prop to My Plays.

Reading a row

From left to right:

• Score: the 0–100 number and its tier.
• Player: name, team and position.
• Opp: tonight's opponent. "@" means the player is on the road, "vs" means at home.
• Prop: the line, read line first. o3.5 Reb means over 3.5 rebounds.
• L10: how often the player went over this line in the last 10 games. Green is good, red is poor.
• Def vs pos: how tonight's defense ranks against the player's position, from 1st (toughest) to 30th (softest). A higher number is a friendlier matchup for an over.
• Avg – line: the player's recent average minus the line. +2.9 means the average is about three above the number.
• Over: the best over price on the board and the book offering it.

Filters worth knowing

• Min score hides anything under the score you pick. Try 80 to see only Strong and better.
• Main prices keeps each player's main line and hides alternate lines.
• Scored only hides props the board could not score (see below).
• Filters holds the rest. Anything you set appears as a chip so nothing stays applied out of sight. Clear all resets.
• View changes row height: Dense, Compact or Relaxed.

The board only shows overs. The NBA feed it reads carries no under prices, so there is no Unders view on NBA.

Who isn't ranked

• Players listed Out are removed. Doubtful players stay, with lower confidence.
• A prop is left unscored when the player has fewer than 5 games, has just changed teams, or when the results and the price disagree by 35 points or more. Those rows stay on the board without a score, so nothing is hidden.

Tips for newer bettors

• Check the line at your book. The board shows the best price it found. Your book may post a different number or a worse price.
• Watch for news. A late scratch changes minutes for everyone on that team. Check Injury impact before you lock anything in.
• Small samples lie. Early in the season 10 games can include last season. Open the row to see which games count.
• Look across the ladder. If you like a player but not the line, open the Hit rate matrix to see how they do at every number.

Troubleshooting

• The board is empty: books may not have posted lines yet. In the preseason and early in the day, few NBA lines are up.
• A player is missing: check your market, game, search, Min score and Scored only filters. Clear all resets them.
• A price looks stale: prices refresh while the page is open. If a book has pulled the line, the row says so.
