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 better likelihood of cashing than the sportsbooks are giving it. That's why the higher the edge, the better.

Although it does not guarantee that you will win a given bet, consistently taking picks with a higher betting edge can increase your chances of being a profitable bettor in the long run. This is an essential aspect of successful sports betting.
