Top NBA First Basket Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions: Thursday (12/1)
Dallas Mavericks take on the 5-18 Detroit Pistons. I'll predict two players from both teams that I believe can score first.
Dallas Mavericks have won the tip 60% of the time over the last ten games. Detroit Pistons have only won 40% and scored the first field goal 43.5% this season. Marvin Bagley III has started nine times in the past ten and has scored four of team’s first shots and three of game's first goals. Killian Hayes has also started each of last 10 games and he has shot .78 shots per the game. Luka Doncic has only played in nine of those ten. The Mavericks will win the tips more often than the Pistons. The Pistons needed fewer shots to score the first bucket.
