StatLogic Sports Daily Hoops Hustle: NBA & NCAA Picks & Edges & Parlays for 2/4

Scott L.

Updated: Feb 5



Now that we have started digging into the college basketball data a little deeper, we have the ability to show some of the larger edges we see on the daily slate when we post our betting edges at the bottom of this page. When there is missing information or questions about injuries and other circumstances, we may not be comfortable posting our actual projections, but we are happy to do so where we have sufficient data.


When you read through today's information, keep in mind that we are extremely selective with our recommended picks as they need to have at least a 60-percent win probability or better according to our proprietary algorithm and also must pass through that stringent set of parameters that we consider for each matchup. In our daily posts you will find our recommended bets as well as games that don't quite make the cut to be recommended and which might make solid parlay options and other games where we believe there are edges favoring one side.


Parlays always will have a lower win probability than straight bets, but there are times that a parlay will meet our requirements and be recommended. We realize that many sports bettors prefer not to bet very short odds that approach and exceed -200, so in our goal to provide as much information and help as many people as possible, we do provide potential parlay options that are strong bets that don't quite make the cut for us as well as other games that have betting edges but also don't quite meet our high standards to be recommended picks.


Our college basketball betting edges have performed well, hovering at around 56 to 57 percent over a large sample size since early November, and our parlay options have been extremely successful as you can see below.

While we usually don't recommend parlays - mainly because it decreases the win probability while increasing the potential payout - for those who aren't interested in laying the juice, combining two of our money line recommended picks or pairing one of our recommended picks with other picks we think have betting edges often can be very strong plays as well. They just may not be strong enough to meet the criteria for us to recommend them, though, and are "bet at your own risk" like the other games we post that have betting edges.


Our potential money line parlay games from Jan. 4-6 were 19-1 ... they have gone 173-67 (72.1%) since Jan. 4 and were 18-2 Jan. 14-15.
