NBA Player Props

The NBA Player Dashboard is an interactive tool designed to deliver advanced player analytics, projections, and matchup insights in one place. Each player’s page displays xEP Projections for major stat markets—Points, Rebounds, Assists, and 3PM—alongside their current sportsbook lines and projected edge values.

The Matchup Analytics panel breaks down how each opponent performs defensively by stat type and position, helping users identify favorable or difficult matchups at a glance. The higher the rank the better the matchup!

With quick tabs for Trends, Alt Lines, and Game Logs, this dashboard provides a full analytical snapshot of any player’s upcoming game, allowing users to make smarter, data-driven betting or fantasy decisions.

The xEP NBA Player Props Dashboard delivers daily projections, betting edges, and matchup analytics for every NBA player prop. It allows users to filter by market, matchup, or player to instantly identify value opportunities based on xEP projections and opponent defensive ranks.

The Edge column quantifies betting value by comparing xEP’s projection to sportsbook lines, while the Opp Rank shows how difficult the matchup is for that specific stat and player position — with lower numbers indicating tougher defenses and higher ranks signaling easier matchups. Updated daily, this dashboard helps users spot betting edges and gauge player performance for upcoming games.

The xEP NBA Alternate Lines Tool allows users to explore alternate player props with precise projections, probabilities, and betting edge metrics. It compares sportsbook odds to xEP’s internal model to highlight potential value, showing how likely each alternate line is to hit and how favorable the matchup is. The EDGE column quantifies model advantage over the book, while RANK reflects defensive difficulty for that stat and player position. Updated daily, it’s ideal for bettors and analysts who want to identify strong alternate lines and maximize betting efficiency through matchup-aware probabilities.

The xEP NBA Matchup Analytics tool provides team-level defensive insights, showing how each team performs both overall and against specific positions. The General Defense section highlights overall stats allowed across all players, while Vs Position reveals how teams defend guards, forwards, and centers individually. Updated daily, this tool helps users spot favorable or difficult matchups by visualizing opponent defensive ranks across key stats like points, rebounds, assists, and shooting efficiency.

The xEP NBA Parlay Builder automatically generates randomized parlays using high-probability props (above 60%) across Points, Rebounds, Assists, and 3PM. Users can select preferred stat markets and the number of legs to instantly create data-driven combinations optimized by xEP projections. Each parlay displays player props, odds, and success probabilities, giving bettors a quick, analytical way to find plus-EV combinations and streamline their betting strategy.

The xEP NBA Game Logs Tool displays each player’s recent game performance across key stats including minutes, points, rebounds, assists, and shooting efficiency. It tracks how often players hit their prop lines over the last 10 games, with color-coded indicators for quick visual analysis. This tool helps users identify trends, consistency, and recent form to better evaluate player performance and betting opportunities.

The Trends section highlights recent player performance patterns across key stat categories such as Points, Rebounds, Assists, and 3PM. It visualizes short-term form, showing how consistently a player exceeds or falls short of expectations over their last 5–10 games.
