Thursdayâs Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets
Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook
Los Angeles Lakers at Golden State Warriors
Parlay One:
- Leg 1: Jarred Vanderbilt 8+ Points (+170)
- Leg 2: Andrew Wiggins 2+ Three-Pointers Made (-130)
- Leg 3: Warriors -5.5 (-115)
After a weird game one where the Lakers won despite both Steph and Klay making six threes, I expect a bounceback for Steve Kerr and Co. With the day to plan and regroup, they should be just fine here to take it cleanly.
With that being said, this Golden State team is still a big âbet every overâ team with their top-ranked pace and 17th-ranked offense. Vanderbilt is projected at 8.1 points so Iâll take his ability to reach eight at plus money.
Steph and Klay wonât be the only ones chucking threes after the team attempted 53 shots from deep last game, with Wiggins making up five of those, I see him dropping a pair from deep as the Warriors cruise at home to a win. I will bet one unit on this parlay.
Parlay Odds: +700
Parlay Two:
- Leg 1: Steph Curry Over 5.5 Assists (-130)
- Leg 2: Austin Reaves Over 15.5 Points (+110)
- Leg 3: Dennis Schroder 10+ Points (+110)
Again, give me all the overs in this game.
Now, you may have expected a bit more star power in these parlays but there is always value to be found when the focus is on the spotlight drawn by players such as Steph and LeBron and they are forced to act as facilitators and find their open teammates. Reaves is projected to score 18 points by the BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet so taking his over 15.5 at +110 is one of my favorite plays on the slate.
Schroder is in a similar boat, projected at 11.5 points. You can tweak these props a bit, going riskier or safer. So feel free to take Schroder over anywhere between seven to 10 points with Reaves at 13 to 17. I will put one unit on this parlay as well.
Parlay Odds: +650
