Battle 4 Atlantis NCAAB Picks & Preview + CBB Promo Codes

The Battle 4 Atlantis tournament features renowned programs trying to regain their footing among the best college basketball teams in the country.

The peloton is strong without an obviously dominant team. North Carolina, Villanova, Michigan and Arkansas are young teams that should improve as the season goes on.

This is expected to be a competitive must-win tournament starting on November 22. Here are our Battle 4 Atlantis best bets as well as the best college basketball promo codes in the country.

Betting lines are subject to change, but here are the odds for Battle 4 Atlantis 2023:

There are two ranked teams in the field: North Carolina (14) and Arkansas (20).

North Carolina missed the NCAA Tournament last season for the first time since 2010. Center Armando Bacot is the best player in Atlantis’ field. He averages 22.7 points and 13.3 rebounds. He was expected to turn pro after last season, but returned for his final season with the Tar Heels.

Three of the four games on the first day look great: Villanova (3-1) against Texas Tech (3-0); Michigan (3-1) against Memphis (3-0); and Arkansas (3-1) against Stanford (3-1). North Carolina should do what it can with Northern Iowa in the other game.

Best bets Battle 4 Atlantis 2023: Villanova winner (+420 or better)

The Wildcats bounced back from a tough loss to Penn to rout Maryland on Friday. The return of guard Justin Moore from an Achilles injury in 2022 is key to Villanova’s success. Moore looks healthy and is averaging a team-high 16 points per game. Villanova benefits from balanced scoring — five players average at least 8.3 points — making the Wildcats a tough team to defend.

Texas Tech (+600 or better) is another long shot to consider. The Red Raiders are 3-0. They have become an exceptional basketball school. In 2019, they made the final game of the NCAA tournament, losing to Virginia in overtime. Tech has a new coach and three transfer starters, but they play well together and could be a team to watch.

Sophomore guard Pop Issacs leads the team in scoring (11.7) and assists (3.3). The Red Raiders have a tough first game against Villanova but if they win, watch out.

If you want to bet on the favorite, North Carolina is loaded with talent beyond Bacot. RJ Davis is a tremendous point guard who can score. Entering the season, he had 1,304 career points. Additionally, the Tar Heels have a top recruiting class that is starting to make an impact. North Carolina plays a fast-paced game that can be difficult to defend.
