The bookmakers have given a few of this weekend’s NBA and college basketball games some super spice.
Cross-sport prop bets for the Super Bowl have become increasingly popular over the last few years, and SportsBetting.ag has rolled out eight that feature NBA and NCAA basketball games that will take place either Saturday or Sunday.
Some of the props have spreads while a couple are close enough to be considered a tossup. The statistical bet is settled by which total outcome will be higher, plus or minus the spread where applicable.
