First, let's address the elephant in the room: how to bet on basketball. It's essential to be at least 18 💪 years old and create an account with an online bookmaker. We recommend using reputable sites like Betway, Betfair™, or Betano. 💪 Once you've made your first deposit, you can navigate their user-friendly platforms and choose the bets that best fit your 💪 strategy.

Now, let's explore the different types of bets:

1. Spreads: Predict the margin of victory for a team. For example, if 💪 one team is favored to win by 7.5 points, a -7.5 spread bet would require them to win by 8 💪 points or more for you to win.

2. Totals: Bet on the total number of points scored in a game. You 💪 can wager on whether the total points will be over or under a predetermined number.

3. Moneyline: Also known as a 💪 straight-up bet, this is a simple win or lose wager on a team.
