Basketball is one of the few sports that has a solid platform across all continents, which means that even if you are in Europe and Africa (which is invariably the most convenient time zone for international sports broadcasts anyway) you will have access to basketball live scores and results almost throughout the day, and for most of the week.

Why are basketball live scores important for fans?

Basketball live scores are important for fans because they give you the chance to place your bets right in the heart of all the action. When the big game is on, it’s worth checking out the most recent live scores today. With betting.co.uk, you will have access to basketball live scores for multiple domestic and international competitions.

With basketball live scores, you will be in a better position to make more informed decisions before you have a flutter on the sport. The only results that are arguably more popular than basketball live results are soccer live results - although we’ll leave that for our readers to decide.

Basketball live scores: Which leagues to look out for

The best leagues for basketball live scores and results are the continental competitions in North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. While there is still a strong domestic component to those leagues, there is also a transnational element to those basketball live results, which means the level of interest will be higher, and that in turn means that there will be better and more comprehensive wagering options at the biggest sportsbooks in the world.

Another compelling feature of leagues that are big and popular is that they will not just offer you basketball live scores and results, but they will also offer you tremendous access to insights on the sport, which are not readily available when tracking volleyball live scores, for example.

Basketball Live Scores From The Olympic Games

At the Summer Olympics, basketball live scores and results are available for both the men’s and women’s competitions, which is not necessarily something that you will encounter when searching for other live sports scores and results.

Basketball teams you should always have your eye on

When betting on the basketball markets at the Summer Olympics, you will have access to each-way and outright markets for both the men’s and women’s tournaments. You will need to keep track of all basketball live scores and basketball live results, to make the most of your betting options. If you'd like to check out the latest scores for other games, we cover everything from ice hockey to Formula 1 live results online.

More often than not, you will find that the United States is the favourite team to win the Gold medal at the Summer Olympics, given their rich history in the sport both domestically and on the international front.

Basketball nations which traditionally do well at the Summer Olympics, without necessarily winning, include the United States, Australia, and Spain, especially during the group phase of such a competition.

Basketball teams that do not carry the same level of expectations, even though they tend to qualify for Olympic events, include Iran, Germany, and Japan. Even though the expectations might be low here, it is always smart to keep an eye on teams like that because they just might surprise you every now and then. Summer Olympics tend to do that for a sporting nation, where the basketball action can transcend the sport. It is often about the triumph of the human spirit at the Summer Games, which is always something worth following for basketball fans.

NBA

Basketball teams you should always have your eye on

The Milwaukee Bucks are among the teams that have won the NBA championships in the past decade. Other teams that have conquered United States basketball in recent years include the L.A Lakers, Toronto Raptors, Golden State Warriors, Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Miami Heat.

Other teams always worth keeping an eye on are the Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs, both of whom have also won the NBA Championship in recent seasons. Then you also have the teams that have regularly qualified for the NBA Finals, which is an equally compelling achievement.

On that list you will find the Oklahoma City Thunder,the Phoenix Suns, and the Boston Celtics.

Many basketball teams produce golden generations, which means that the winning teams of a previous season tend to repeat that title the year after. That is not always going to happen but it is a regular occurrence in basketball. So, for basketball fans following live scores, that is also something worth keeping an eye out for.

Teams that have not been in the winner’s circle for some time now, include the Orlando Magic, the Detroit Pistons, the New Jersey Nets, the Indiana Pacers, the Utah Jazz, and the New York Knicks.

If you are interested in other sports betting markets, you should also check out all ice hockey live scores today. Basketball and ice hockey are both highly popular sporting events to follow in Europe, which offers up numerous other opportunities for you to bet, win, and make a profit.

Basketball teams worth looking out for

The Turkish teams are always worth looking out for in competitions like this. Examples of teams that tend to do well in competitions like this are Anadolu Efes and Fenerbahce. However, other teams that are perhaps worthy of your attention in competitions like this are the likes of  Real Madrid - the Spanish giants who have enjoyed remarkable success in this competition - and Russian outfit CSKA Moscow.

There was once a time when the Greeks were the gods in this competition, with teams like Panathianakos and Olympiacos enjoying tremendous joy in this event. They have been a little quieter in recent years, but it is always worth keeping an eye out for them because they have so much weight in history here. What is interesting to note is that these basketball teams are all a part of bigger football franchises in Europe, which means they will always have access to tremendous financial resources and support structures.
