Summary

Brandon Anderson is a national columnist, covering all things NFL, NBA and more for The Action Network. He writes weekly NFL Power Rankings and makes picks for every team in every game, including spreads, totals, props, escalator bets, long shots and more. He also covers the NBA and appears regularly on the Buckets podcast.

Nobody loves a long-shot future like Anderson, who has an incredible ability to spot a 150-1 long shot that somehow drops to 3-1 before losing with immense CLV and pride.

Previously, his writing has been featured in Sports Illustrated's The Cauldron, Sports Pickle, Grandstand Central, Pivot Analysis, BetMGM Sports and elsewhere. He's covered just about any sport he can get his hands on.

Anderson has a lifetime ROI of 14% on almost 5,000 bets, and finished +257 units in 2023 alone. He's a futures specialist with a career ROI of 46% on futures bets as of Feb. 2024. His published props last season finished over 20% for NBA regular season, 22% in the NBA playoffs and 17% in March Madness.

Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Bet the Texans to go from worst to first in the division, and even doubled down with a Will Anderson DROY cherry on top. Joe Flacco CPOY +25000 and Nuggets over Heat +1600 exact outcome were fun, too!
Most Heartbreaking Bet
MVP bets. Tom Brady +1400 in 2021, odds-on favorite in December, but shutout vs. Saints on SNF. Nikola Jokic +900 in 2023, rightful leader all the way, but the moron voters get bored and go with Embiid last minute. Brock Purdy +5000 in 2024, odds-on favorite on Christmas, but the voters are too proud to vote for him or Dak. You're killin' me, Smalls!
