What Is an Edge in NBA Futures Betting?

An edge occurs when Dimers' model projects the probability of an event to be higher than the best odds available. Essentially, it means that our NBA model suggests a bet has a better chance of winning than the sportsbooks are giving it. That's why the higher the edge, the better.

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