L20 · Without Tavares · Under 0.5

Average: 0.4; −0.1 vs line
Median: 0; −0.5 vs line
Hit rate: 67%; 6 of 9
Price implies: 68%; at −212
Books’ fair: 63%; margin removed
Our chance: 65%; estimate · fair −185

Research, not a pick. At −210 (the best of 2 sportsbooks) the price is worse than our fair −185, so it isn't worth it.

Our chance is our model's estimate, not a proven edge: props on our numbers have lost money since Oct 7.
