Best EuroBasket Bets for Tuesday, September 2
All odds current as of 6:00 PM ET Monday.
Deni Avdija Over 2.5 Assists (-170 bet365)
Deni Avdija 5+ Assists (+320 bet365)
The Israeli team, coming off a big upset of France, looks to secure its place in the knockout round and possibly a better seed against a Belgium team that has allowed at least 85 points to the two superior offenses it has faced. I think we see a lot of points from Team Israel and that Avdija's usage could lead to another spike game in the assists column. The potential helpers were there against France but his teammates couldn't hit the shots. I wouldn't mind laddering this up to six.
Darius Thompson 10+ Points (+200 bet365)
His minutes were slow out of the gate, but he got a boost the last time out at the expense of Alessandro Pajola, which I agree is the smart decision. I think we see the trend continue even more so in a fast-paced game against Spain, and it's the perfect game environment for a guy like Thompson.
Martin Hermannsson 15+ Points (+120 bet365)
I was on Hermannsson before the tournament started, and I'm sticking with him in a big-time matchup against Luka Doncic. Jordan Loyd went for 32 points in this same matchup, and although Hermannsson isn't as polished as Loyd, I still like the value we're getting with Doncic none too stout on the defensive end.
Kamar Baldwin 5+ Assists (+110 bet365)
Team Georgia had a rough go of it against Greece and now looks to cut into the point differential in a game that they are listed as 28.5-point favorites. I think we see the pedal to the metal with the starters and a lot of those baskets facilitated by Baldwin.
