I’m only relying on the google stats when the game is started that’s why I rarely bet on prematch because some questionable players usually play/not play unexpectedly on the actual match.
This is what likely what most of the bettors does for NBA.
We check stats through google and when the game is about to start, we miss some of them because information is overwhelming.
And betting on prematches is kind of sickening nowadays with all of these surprising announcement of who's not going to play for the team.
