Today’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Boston Celtics vs. Detroit Pistons

The Boston Celtics are heavy favorites to win tonight’s game against the Pistons. But Jayson Tatum should still be able to get through the first three quarters if necessary. If the Celtics are blowing out the Pistons on the road early, Tatum’s likely already having a big day.

Tatum has averaged 30.9 points per game this season and has hit at least 30 points in four of his last five games and seven of his last ten games. He’s shooting a high volume of threes and can get to the line at least ten times in any game he plays.

Meanwhile, Derrick White is starting to play better in the absence of Marcus Smart. White has earned at least 14 points in his last five games and is going up against one of the worst defenses in the NBA.

Finally, Al Horford has averaged 2.6 assists this season. He only earned one assist in Boston’s most recent game but added at least three assists in his four previous games. Boston struggled offensively against the Suns in their loss and scored just 94 points. Usually, Boston’s way up in the 100’s.

The Celtics will score more buckets against the Pistons, which leads to more assists. Horford will benefit from playing the Pistons.

Parlay Odds: +542

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Golden State Warriors

Josh Giddey has been one of the bright spots for the Thunder this season. He’s added 16.2 points with eight rebounds and 5.9 assists per game. He’s a guy that could ultimately average triple-doubles shortly. Anyway, he’s earned at least six assists in four of his last five games and is coming off ten assists against the Rockets last time out. Look for Giddey to continue his trend of six assists.

The Warriors no longer have Steph Curry healthy. Other guys will have to step up. But Andrew Wiggins won’t be that guy, especially in the assist category. Wiggins has earned just 2.2 assists per game and had one assist last time out against Dallas, despite the Warriors adding 119 points. It’s rare for Wiggins to get multiple assists in a game.

However, I like Klay Thompson to get Over on his rebounds prop. Thompson only had two against Dallas but added 8, 7, and 6 over his previous three games. Thompson will be asked to do more now with Steph Curry out. He’ll get a ton of minutes, shoot a ton of shots, and try to be more aggressive on the glass. Take the Over 4.5 there.
