A quick guide to NBA spreads, totals, moneylines, props and futures before opening a matchup or market.
The favorite must win by more than the number to cover, while the underdog can win outright or lose by fewer points than the spread.
A total is an over/under on combined points. Sportsbooks can adjust the price, such as -115 or -105, before moving the number.
A moneyline is a bet on the outright winner, without a point handicap. Larger favorites have higher minus prices, while underdogs return more for a winning bet.
Player props cover markets such as points and assists. Futures include championship, conference, division and individual award markets that settle later in the season.
