What Is an Edge in NBA Futures Betting?

The edge at Dimers is when we think the probability of an event occurring is more likely than the best odds available. Essentially, it means that our NBA model believes a bet has a higher likelihood of winning than the sportsbooks are giving it. That's why the higher the edge, the better for you.

Although it does not guarantee a win, consistently taking Dimers' plays that have a higher betting edge can increase your chances of being profitable in the long run. This is an essential aspect of successful sports betting.
