NBA Picks

The NBA is considered by many to be the best league for sports betting. Yes, the NFL is king in terms of popularity and wagering volume per game but nothing beats NBA basketball over the course of a season. Why? There are many opportunities to make NBA picks every night. NBA lines move more often and are not as sharp as football lines which are under the microscope all week. NBA odds have a much shorter lifespan meaning there are greater opportunities to find value. That gives Doc's basketball handicappers exponentially more opportunities to offer daily free NBA picks and be even more selective when offering expert NBA picks.

Free NBA Picks and Expert Predictions

You can find Free NBA picks throughout the Doc's Sports network including this free NBA predictions page; on our Doc's NBA Experts page; and on the Youtube channels of our expert NBA handicappers. We now also have a very popular NBA video section that is updated daily with several videos during the NBA season. Check the video link on the top navigation.

Get your NBA Picks Today, and Everyday!

Doc's offers expert NBA picks today and every day of the NBA season! Sure, there are the days when the NBA card consists of only tanking teams competing for the right to draft the next Zion Williamson. These teams are bad and their competition for an audience is Seinfeld reruns or maybe getting an extra hour of sleep. At Doc's we don't see this as trash basketball, we see this as a huge opportunity to make money...on trash basketball. Each day during the basketball season is an opportunity to make valuable and profitable predictions

NBA Picks Against the Spread

Most NBA bettors are going to make NBA picks against the spread. This is also known as NBA picks ATS. Sportsbooks give each NBA team a handicap of X amount of points. That means if books think the Lakers are 4 points better than the Celtics they will offer a line of Lakers -4. If a Doc's handicapper has reason to believe the Lakers are much more than 4 points better, his pick against the spread would be to take the Lakers -4. This is how all bets on the spread work unless bookmakers consider both teams to be evenly matched, in which case the line is a pick, AKA pick'em. At Doc's the majority of our NBA selections are against the spread. However, there can be outstanding value on betting NBA totals.

NBA Over/Under Picks

The pace of the game, as well as which team dictates the pace, is a key factor when handicapping basketball games. When pace is an especially strong signal, it may dictate a pick on the over/under. An NBA over/under pick is another way of referring to a prediction on an NBA game point total. NBA total lines are usually well above 200 in today's NBA making them harder for the betting public to find value. For example, the 2004 Detroit Pistons team was very consistently within 5 points of the 90 they averaged. In today's NBA, greater scoring means greater variance. However, professional basketball handicappers can use this to their advantage as the sportsbooks also try to keep track of the higher scoring NBA totals. Doc's sports NBA total picks are some of the best in the business and our total prediction write-ups are insightful. Along with offering our NBA expert picks, we provide free selections that are intended to help bettors with their handicapping legwork.

NBA Parlay Picks

Parlay picks are sucker bets they say! Never bet and NBA parlay they say! Bettors that speak in these absolutes clearly haven't learned how to find value betting basketball. Sure, the payout on parlays at most sportsbooks have gone down to the point where putting two of your picks together for the sake of winning more is not a good investment. But what if your parlay picks could be made on the same game? That is called a correlated NBA parlay. Many sportsbooks offer the ability to make NBA bets against the spread and total in the same game. So if you have a great read on a game and expect one team to quit and fall behind, you may decide to make an NBA parlay prediction. At Doc's our experts will offer a free parlay pick in rare cases. It is not common because we need to find value for our customers on both lines before they move. If our parlay prediction is indeed on the same game, we need to confirm there is value regardless of the fact that you can't line shop the odds on a parlay. Both bets in a parlay must be made at the same sportsbook. If there is a free selection on the total over of -14 and under 200 it was offered knowing that those lines can be found at most Las Vegas sportsbooks and online.

NBA Playoff Predictions

Once the regular season is over the NBA tends to resemble the national football league in many ways. Bettors have much more time to make their NBA playoff picks as teams travel to each other's arenas and rest between series. Making successful NBA playoff predictions is as much about when you bet as it is who you bet on. A series might not start for days. That means an NBA spread may move quite a few points especially as the public bets closer to the action. If we see value in a playoff prediction it will rely heavily on getting the line we are quoting in said NBA pick. In the words of the great Tony George, 'We are betting numbers, not teams!' That may not be more relevant than when making picks on the NBA playoff games.

David went toe-to-toe with Goliath in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinal series between the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers. On one end of a second-quarter skirmish towered Sixers big man Joel Embiid. And on the other was respectably sized Celtics guard Terry Rozier. Shoves and jawing resulted in a double technical. “Too bad,” the 7-foot Embiid said after the game, “[Rozier’s] so short he couldn’t get to my face.”

The thing is, Rozier’s not that short — he’s listed on Boston’s roster at 6 feet 2 inches. He’s too tall to join the exclusive fraternity of NBA players whose skills were likely questioned as they pursued a career in pro basketball because they were vertically challenged. In 1995, rapper Skee-Lo, who is 5 feet 9 inches himself, provided the anthem for this mold of hopeful hoopers on his hit single, “I Wish”: I wish I was a little bit taller / I wish I was a baller. There’s even a bit of a new remix.

Height, however, didn’t stop the following NBA players from balling out. In order of ascending height, these are the top six stars in league history who stand at 6 feet tall and under.

Muggsy Bogues

Height: 5 feet 3 inches

Top career performance:18 points, 17 assists and five rebounds vs. Detroit Pistons on Dec. 23, 1992

Tyrone “Muggsy” Bogues, the No. 12 overall pick out of Wake Forest in the 1987 draft, is the shortest player to grace the hardwood in the NBA. During his 14-year career with four teams, cameras often depicted the height difference between the 5-foot-3-inch Bogues and his taller counterparts. There’s the 1987 photo of him standing next to his 7-foot-7-inch Washington Bullets teammate Manute Bol. And, from the 1995 playoff matchup between the Charlotte Hornets and Chicago Bulls, there’s a shot of Bogues crouched in his defensive stance guarding the 6-foot-6-inch Michael Jordan. During that series, the greatest of all time allegedly poked fun at the small point guard, saying, “Shoot it, you f—ing midget” — although some have dispelled the story as a myth. Bogues is one of the best players in the history of the Jordan-owned Hornets franchise, as Charlotte’s all-time leader in minutes played, assists and steals.

Earl Boykins

Height: 5 feet 5 inches

Top career performance: 36 points (matched career high), nine assists and three steals vs. Atlanta Hawks on April 6, 2007

In a game between the Denver Nuggets and Detroit Pistons on Nov. 11, 2004, Earl Boykins, at 5 feet 5 inches, became the shortest player in NBA history to drop 30 points in a game. Boykins put up 32 for Denver despite dislocating the middle finger of a hand in the first quarter. Out of his 16 seasons in the NBA, the 2006-07 campaign, during which he posted a career-high average of 15.2 points in 31 games, stands out the most. Boykins established a reputation on scouting reports as a scoring threat that year, putting up 20 or more points in all but one contest during a stretch of 10 games (coming off the bench in most of them). Even more impressive: Checking in at 135 pounds, he could bench-press 315 — nearly 2.5 times his weight.

spud webb

Height: 5 feet 7 inches

Top career performance: 29 points, 17 assists, four steals vs. Los Angeles Clippers on March 23, 1993

In the 1986 NBA Slam Dunk contest, Anthony “Spud” Webb slayed the 6-foot-8-inch, high-flying giant Dominique Wilkins — his Atlanta Hawks teammate and the champion of the 1985 competition. Then a rookie, Webb also beat out Terence Stansbury, Gerald Wilkins, Jerome Kersey, Paul Pressey, Roy Hinson and Terry Tyler. And with two perfect scores of 50 in the final round, he put the nail in the coffin against the man who had outdunked Jordan the year before. No player shorter than Webb has ever participated in the contest — or emerged as the winner. Little guys can fly too.

Isaiah Thomas

Height: 5 feet 8 inches

Top career performance: 53 points, four assists, three steals vs. Washington Wizards on May 2, 2017

Related Stories

For his entire pro career, which witnessed him go from the last pick in the 2011 draft to one of the NBA’s most prolific scorers, Isaiah Thomas had either been classified at 5 feet 9 inches or 5 feet 10 inches. But those marks are a little generous. So in 2016, while playing for the Boston Celtics, Thomas came clean. “I’m only 5-foot-8,” he wrote in The Players’ Tribune. His current squad, the Los Angeles Lakers, lists Thomas at 5 feet 9 inches on its roster — despite his confession. Regardless of how tall he actually is, Thomas represents a dying breed in the NBA: little guys with huge games. He came up especially big on May 2, 2017, with a career-high 53 points on what would’ve been the 23rd birthday of his late younger sister, Chyna, who died in a car accident at the beginning of last year’s playoffs. Thomas’ performance marked the highest playoff scoring output since another undersized player, Allen Iverson, dropped 55 in 2003.

Nate Robinson

Height: 5 feet 9 inches

Top career performance: 41 points, eight rebounds and three assists vs. Indiana Pacers on Feb. 23, 2009

A post shared by Nate Robinson (@naterobinson) on

Only one player in the history of the NBA Slam Dunk contest has been named champion three times. That claim belongs to the one and only Nate Robinson, who won in 2006, 2009 and 2010. During the ’06 contest, he brought Spud Webb onto the court and threw down a jam after flying over him to earn a 50. An NBA journeyman, Robinson played for eight teams in 11 seasons while showing off his leaping ability every chance he got. In practice, he dunked on the 7-foot-1-inch Shaquille O’Neal, and in a game he blocked the 7-foot-6-inch Yao Ming. He hasn’t played in an NBA game since 2015, but you’ll see him on a big-screen court this summer in the hoops flick Uncle Drew. Hope his character, Boots, will catch a body for old times’ sake. Robinson definitely still has that bounce.

Allen Iverson

Height: 6 feet

Nba Players Over Under Tips

Top career performance: 60 points, six assists and five steals vs. Orlando Magic on Feb. 12, 2005

It was once one of the most pondered questions in all of basketball: Is Allen Iverson really even 6 feet tall? “There’s no way,” Spurs forward Malik Rose told The New York Times in 2003. “He’s like, 5-11.” There’s no question that Iverson’s height is the least important number in his career. Four league scoring titles, 11 All-Star selections, three first-team All-NBA selections, one MVP Award and more all make the Hall of Famer the greatest pound-for-pound — and inch-for-inch — player of all time.

Honorable mention: At 5-foot-9, Calvin Murphy is the shortest player to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame (1993).

Murphy (1979) and Isaiah Thomas (2016, 2017) are the shortest players to appear in the NBA All-Star Game.
