Understanding Expected Value in Player Props
Expected Value (EV) measures the average profit or loss you can expect from a bet over the long run. A positive EV (+EV) bet is one where you have an edge over the sportsbook's line.
The key to finding +EV player props is developing projections that are more accurate than the market. Consider factors like:
- Recent performance trends and hot/cold streaks
- Matchup advantages (pace, defensive rankings, etc.)
- Rest days and minutes/usage projections
- Injuries to teammates affecting usage rates
- Home/away splits and travel factors
Pro tip: Focus on props where you have genuine insight or information that the market may not have fully priced in. Avoid betting just because historical stats look favorable – the books see those too.
