    Basketball teasers. Worth a damn?

    Hi all. Lots of good information here about football teasers and certain subsets / spreads that can be profitable.

    I'm curious about Basketball Teasers. I don't see much info here in a few searches about them. My first inkling is that would be because basketball teasers are losers? Am I wrong, or are there certain spots where they can be profitable.

    Thanks in advance.

    I never really do them, but I suppose you could find good spots for them. My thing is 6 points in basketball can be a lot but it is also can be nothing. There can be meaningless buckets at end of the game where a 2 point lead turns to 9.

    I only do teasers in football. Just my opinion

    1) Calculate average break-even win rate per teaser leg
    2) Find bets that exceed the average break-even win rate
    3) Profit

    +EV NBA teasers legs do exist, but are rare even at 5 points 3 team +180 which is hard to find these days too.
