How we come up with our NBA predictions

At Sporting Post our NBA prediction model is designed to take all of the guesswork out of basketball betting.

We take expert opinions and marry them with data analysis and powerful AI-driven technology to get NBA win probabilities for every game. Trust our computer model to give you an edge with its data-driven NBA predictions each game, every day.

And rest assured that you’re spending less time punching stats into the computer by using this tool to get trusted predictions for the NBA. Don’t spend hours researching stats, injuries, and the rest of the market when our NBA probabilities are up to the task.

1. Aggregating expert insights

We begin by collecting intel from a group of NBA reporters, former players, and league insiders who are plugged into team thinking, player mindsets, game-deciding factors, injuries and matchup intel.

Instead of trawling through dozens of predictions available online, we gather the most trustworthy, well-informed voices in one place, and return a single, compiled model.

2. Data analysis and market sentiment

In addition to our experts' predictions, we also factor in betting market trends and betting sentiment.

When making our predictions, we evaluate the overall betting market including line movement, and where the sharp bettors (influenced bettors) are placing their money.

This ensures our NBA predictions are not overly reliant on any one individual perspective, but rather that they are accounting for the collective wisdom of the basketball betting market.

3. AI-driven confidence levels

Our AI analyzes historical data, betting trends, and real-time stats to give its best predictions.

After weighing game simulations, match up history and statistical models, the AI assigns a confidence percentage to each prediction.

This helps it weed out deceiving data points and get to the best predictions in the most accurate way.

4. Calculating the expert opinion win probability

Finally, we collect the AI-generated confidence values and use them to produce a team’s win probability for every NBA game in an easily digestible format.

This final percentage is the best available from experts in the field, coupled with AI and market analysis aiding you the advantage when making your picks.

NBA prediction example

Mavericks vs. Suns – March 9, 3:30 PM

  • Win probability:

    • Mavericks: 35.50%

    • Suns: 64.50%

  • Best moneyline odds:

    • Mavericks: +260 (via BetMGM)

    • Suns: -280 (via FanDuel)

How to use this information

  1. Assess the favorite & underdog

    • The Suns have a 64.50% win probability, making them the favored team.

    • The Mavericks have a 35.50% chance, making them the underdog.

  2. Compare the moneyline odds

    • A bet on the Suns at -280 means you’d need to wager $280 to win $100.

    • A bet on the Mavericks at +260 means a $100 bet wins $260 if they pull off the upset.

  3. Find the value bet

    • Comparing the win probabilities with the odds, the Mavericks at +260 could be a value bet if you believe their chances are better than implied.

    • If you prefer a safer bet, backing the Suns might be the best move, but at a higher cost (-280).

  4. Make a strategic decision

    • If you’re looking for high potential payout, the Mavericks offer better returns.

    • If you prefer a more likely winner, the Suns align with the prediction model.

By using Sporting Post’s NBA predictions, you can spot value bets, compare odds efficiently, and make informed picks every day.
