NBA research is open for the 2026-27 season, preseason included. The regular season starts Tuesday, October 20, and most books post NBA player lines from then, so a preseason slate can show hit rates with no prices. Open the sheets from Research and choose NBA.
The sheets
| Sheet | Use it for | Walkthrough |
|---|---|---|
| Top props | Tonight's NBA props, ranked by score. | Guide |
| Hit rate matrix | Each player's hit rate at every line, with the book's line marked and one price a row. | Guide |
| Injury impact | A card for each player out tonight, and which teammates gain minutes and production in that player's absence. | Guide |
| Triple double and Double double | One sheet with a switch: how often each player has done it, and the price. | Guide |
| Defense vs position | What each of the 30 defenses allows to each position, with a team panel. | Guide |
| King of the Court | Tonight's points + rebounds + assists leaders, live, with the full box score. | Guide |
NBA hit rates cover player props by recent games, like the other sports.
Where to start
- A prop you already like: check its score in Top props, then its ladder in the Hit rate matrix.
- Injury news: open Injury impact. A starter's absence moves the teammates' minutes more than their recent form shows.
- A matchup question: Defense vs position shows how a defense treats the player's position. It is context, not a projection.
- A milestone bet: Triple double and Double double show how often it has happened and what the book pays.
Read the numbers carefully
- Early in the season, samples are small. A player's role can change faster than the numbers show.
- A score is a research summary, not a win chance.
- Check the exact line at your book before you bet.
What a free account sees
NBA research needs Scout, like research for every other sport. Two sheets are free for every account: Defense vs position and King of the Court. On the others a free account gets a preview:
- Hit rate matrix: the top 7 players by the book's line.
- Injury impact: the top 7 props by confidence.
- Triple double and Double double: the first 3 players.
- Top props: the top 7 props in the default market.
See plans for full access.
Troubleshooting
- A sheet is empty or unpriced: in the preseason, books post few NBA player lines, and some days have no games. From October 20, check the date: props may not be posted yet.
- A player is missing from Injury impact: only players listed out have a card.
- A prop has no price: no book is posting that line right now.
