How to Bet USA vs. Jordan

Team USA -41.5 (-115) vs. Team Jordan +41.5 (-111)

Total: 185.5 (O-113, U-113)

Even with two significant victories already secured, Team USA has yet to really blow a team out of the water. The spreads have been relatively similar for their three matchups, but there hasn’t been a monster blowout as many expected. With Team USA tuning up before the elimination rounds, we expect them to want to break out to a comfortable lead and coast in the second half. As a result, although we’re not comfortable backing them to cover the full game spread at 41.5, we believe there’s merit in them covering the first-half spread 0f 22.5. That’s priced at -111, and we feel this is a nice number to get it at.

Although there aren’t many notable stars on this Team USA roster, they’re still a very deep team by all accounts, and that’s a considerable strength in a tournament like this. When you have depth, and players aren’t shooting well in a given game, you can afford to mix and match what’s working on that day, knowing that you can trust the depth to still play at a high level. This makes it more challenging to project players to go over their point props. Still, we’ve heard a lot about Anthony Edwards taking the next step as a star in the NBA, and he’s yet to really have his coming out party in the tournament’s first two games. His total point prop is listed at 14.5, with the over juiced up to -130. Look for Edwards to have a solid first half and lead Team USA to victory, ultimately leading to him going over 14.5 points.
