Learn the Process

Learn how The Smash Report evaluates player props, market movement, playable numbers, pass numbers, and recaps.

• What Is a Smash Score?

  A Smash Score is The Smash Report way of grading a player prop setup across the Over, Under, Pass, and Market reads so the current number can be judged more clearly.

• What Does Line Movement Mean in Player Props?

  Line movement in player props shows how the current number or price has changed from the opener. The key is knowing whether the current line is still playable or has moved into pass territory.

• What Is a Smash in Player Props?

  A Smash is a player prop read where the current number still holds value. The best Smashes combine matchup, role, market movement, playable number, pass number, and risk.

• What Is a Playable Number in Player Props?

  A playable number is the range where a player prop still makes sense. It separates a usable entry from a number that should no longer be chased.

• What Is a Pass Number in Player Props?

  A pass number is the line where the value is gone. It helps you avoid chasing a prop after the market has moved past the best entry.

• PrizePicks and Underdog vs Novig and ProphetX: What’s the Difference?

  PrizePicks and Underdog are built around projection-based pick'em entries, while Novig and ProphetX are more market-driven.
