NBA Summer League rolls on and we are here to determine the best bets you can make on Thursday night! Teams don't cut down nets for a summer league championship, but it can often be the start of something special and a sign of things to come. Some franchises take the summer more seriously, and it's important to identify that before betting. These are our top three favorite bets for tonight in the NBA Summer League.
BET #1: Raptors +5.5 (-110) with DraftKings
The Raptors' record may present them as a lifeless Summer League squad, but we think it's only a matter of time before they find themselves in the win column, and it may happen tonight. After dominating the Pistons for much of yesterday's game, Toronto blew a late lead but more importantly, rookie star shooter Gradey Dick found his form, lighting up Detroit's defense from start to finish. Brooklyn doesn't have any players on their summer roster the caliber of Dick, and the Raptors getting 5.5 points here is just too many.
