Blue Devils basketball odds: How to read point spread, moneyline, total
Here is an example of what a point spread, moneyline, total on a Duke game might look like, followed by an explanation of how to read these odds.
| Team | Spread | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Duke | +2.5 (-110) | +120 | 151 (-110) |
| Wake Forest | -2.5 (-110) | -143 | 151 (-110) |
Moneyline
If you're betting on the moneyline, you just need your chosen team to win the game. A $100 bet on underdog Duke will pay out $120 and your original stake back if the Blue Devils win. A $143 bet on favored Wake Forest will return $100 and your stake back if the Demon Deacons win.
Spread
In this example, Wake Forest is favored by 2.5 points at standard -110 odds. A $110 bet on the Demon Deacons will pay out $100 and your stake back if Wake wins by at least three points to cover the spread. A $110 bet on Duke will return $100 if the Blue Devils win or lose by no more than two points.
Total
The total, which is also known as the OVER/UNDER, is the combined number of points scored by both teams. You're betting UNDER or OVER 151 total points being scored in this example at -110 odds.

Betting options for Blue Devils Basketball
We've covered the basics of betting on Duke basketball, but there are several other ways to wager on the Blue Devils. Here's a quick primer on additional bets, and how they work on sports betting apps.
Parlays
A parlay involves wagering on multiple outcomes in a single bet. Using the Duke vs. Wake Forest example referenced above, let's say you bet Duke +2.5 and UNDER 151 points.
A $100 bet will return $260 (and your stake back) if both of those outcomes hit at game's end. You can add more outcomes or "legs" to a parlay, and be rewarded at higher odds (ex. +600 for a three-team parlay). Just keep in mind that parlays are inherently harder to win because you need all of the outcomes to happen.
Prop bets
Prop bets are made on things that don't involve the outcome of the game. Team props and player props are both available for Duke basketball. For example, you can bet on Duke or Wake Forest to reach 50 points first. Player props are available on the number of points, assists, rebounds a player will have in the game.
| Player | Points Scored | OVER | UNDER |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kyle Filipowski | 17.5 | -115 | -115 |
Duke's Kyle Filipowski was the ACC's Pre-Season Player of the Year. Filipowski can score a maximum of 17 points here for the UNDER to win. OVER bettors need him to have a minimum of 18 points to cash this player prop.

Live betting
Live bets are also known as in-game bets. These bets are made after the game has started. Sportsbooks churn out new odds depending on how the game is unfolding. Live bets can be placed on the spread, moneyline, total, and more.
Futures
As you discovered earlier, futures odds are available on all NCAA teams to win the national title. But you can also bet on futures odds for Duke basketball to win the ACC Championship or the Blue Devils to make the Final Four.
