The new NBA season kicks off with defending champions Oklahoma facing Houston, and Kevin Durant wearing a Rockets jersey for the first time. Not every game will draw that level of attention, but many will offer intriguing betting opportunities.
Basketball is a sport where a single player’s performance can swing a result far more than in soccer. Whatever your strategy, Flashscore will be your ally over the next six months and beyond, helping you analyze your bets. Here are five reasons to use it.
**1. Quick Player Overview**
What better way to start than with Flashscore’s new “Follow Player” feature? From the app, you can add up to 100 players to your favorites list and keep tabs on them at all times. Each time you receive a notification, you can instantly check how that player performed in their last game.
This tool is perfect for both fans and bettors. In the recent match summary, you’ll find a clear, direct look at minutes played, points, rebounds, or assists before the next game. This information is valuable whether you’re betting on the outcome or individual statistics—an increasingly popular option. With Flashscore, everything is in one place, saving time and simplifying your analysis before placing any bet.

**2. Odds That Reflect Key Absences**
Nikola Jokić, Victor Wembanyama, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Luka Dončić, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant… All of them true NBA stars who missed more than ten games last season. Whatever the reason for so many absences, the impact is felt across the league… and in the betting markets.
You might not get the information before the bookmakers do, but you can analyze how the odds react to the absence or return of big names. On our website, you’ll easily find the evolution of odds in the detail of each match, under the ‘odds’ tab. Don’t overlook it!

**3. Game Times in Your Time Zone**
If you don’t live in the United States, checking schedules on American websites can be a headache. On Flashscore, you have the local time configured, and NBA games appear adjusted to your zone. No more doubts about the real start time of the last game or whether the gap between consecutive games is what it seems. In a league with thousands of miles of travel, this time adjustment is not a luxury—it’s a key necessity.

You’ll find a complete summary of their recent games. There, you’ll see not only final scores but also quarter-by-quarter totals, letting you spot at a glance if a team built momentum, choked late, or if the result was influenced by dreaded garbage time.
