Best Bet

Phoenix –1.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

The Phoenix are suddenly one of the hottest NBL teams are posting four consecutive wins. They lost to Adelaide before posting wins against the Hawks, Kings, Bullets, and Wildcats.

They’re playing much better basketball than the JackJumpers, and the odds are only as close as they are because Tasmania plays at home. If this game was played in Melbourne, the Phoenix would be at around –5.5. Therefore, we’re backing them at the better line.

We expect money to come for the Phoenix, so take the opening line before it moves.

Same Game Multi

Phoenix -1.5, Nathan Sobey 20+ Points, Owen Foxwell 4+ Assists, Under 173.5 Points @ $9.50

Bet Now

A confident Nathan Sobey is a dangerous player, and he’s leading the Phoenix to victory. He comes off scoring totals of 22, 29, 33, and 21 points, which are excellent numbers, and we’re happy to take him to score 20+ points.

We also like Owen Foxwell to have 4+ assists. He has totals of 4, 8, 4, and 5, so the stats make him a good bet. Punters get $1.72 to include in NBL same game multis, and it’s a good bet to include.

We’re also including under 173.5 points, which is due to the lack of scoring from Tasmania. They scored 69 points in a loss to Cairns, and confidence levels are low in the camp.

Best Value Bet

Phoenix 11+ @ $3.90

Bet Now

The JackJumpers are there for the taking, and a confident Phoenix team could put them to the sword on Thursday night.

Confidence is key in the NBL, with the JackJumpers coming off consecutive losses to the Taipans and Wildcats, they could struggle to get energized for this game. Therefore, if the Phoenix start well, they could pile on the hurt.

Getting $3.90 is a value price for the big NBL Round 8 game.
