NBA predictions: questions
- How accurate are the NBA predictions?
- The model was tested on the whole 2025–26 season, predicting each game only from the games before it: it called 69% of NBA winners in 1,315 games, against 56% for always backing the home team. Every new pick is settled in public on the accuracy page.
- When are NBA predictions published?
- Up to 3 days before tip-off. Each prediction is updated as the betting market and the line-ups move, until the game starts.
- What do the spread and the total mean?
- The spread is the projected winning margin: −5.5 means the favourite is expected to win by 6 points or more. The total is the projected number of points both teams score together; the over/under pick says whether the game should finish above or below the bookmakers' line.
- Are the NBA predictions free?
- Yes. The win probability, projected score, spread and total of every NBA game are free to read, with no sign-up.
- How are the predictions made?
- Each team gets attack and defence ratings from this season's games, weighted toward recent form and adjusted for the opponents faced, plus a home-court edge measured for each competition. Where bookmakers price a game, the model is blended with their consensus.
