Top 2024 NBA futures bets
Some of Severance’s top 2023-24 NBA futures advice: He says to stay away from the Phoenix Suns (+550) as a title contender. Phoenix got dismantled by Denver in the second round of the playoffs last season, despite Devin Booker scoring 47 points in Game 4. The Suns made a move in the offseason to give Booker and Kevin Durant some support in the form of star shooting guard Bradley Beal.
While they might have the top trio in the NBA heading into the season, there are some concerns on the roster as well. They are proceeding without a true point guard, and their paint presence could be lacking after Deandre Ayton was shipped off during the Lillard trade. One key injury might destroy their campaign, because their bench is average at best.
“Do they really think Jusuf Nurkic is an upgrade on Deandre Ayton at center?” Severance told SportsLine. “Big frontcourts could eat this team for lunch. And what is the likelihood of Durant and Beal staying healthy? Durant hasn’t played more than 55 games since 2018-19. Beal hasn’t topped 60 games since then.” See Severance’s best NBA futures bets at SportsLine.
