I know it’s the Super Bowl tonight, but we’ve got a little appetizer in the NBA with two enticing matchups on the slate before the big game.
Let’s add to the Super Bowl bankroll with two same-game parlays for these NBA matchups.
Sunday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Boston Celtics vs. Miami Heat
- Leg 1: Jrue Holiday Over 11.5 Points (-128)
- Leg 2: Jayson Tatum Over 4.5 Assists (-108)
- Leg 3: Jaylen Brown Over 5.5 Rebounds (-132)
Despite the Celtics playing on the road, we’re rolling with a Boston stack.
Jrue Holiday has added 13.3 points per game this season. However, his line is down to 11.5, even after he went 9-for-13 from the field for 20 points in his latest game.
Holiday has hit at least 12 points in 64% of games this year. He’s also had prior success against the Heat in the points category and has hit this number in six of his last ten games. Holiday can be a bit inconsistent from the field. However, the Heat are below average at defending point guards, ranking 18th in points allowed to them. Let’s start the parlay with Holiday to add at least 12 points in today’s game.
Hopefully, it’s Jayson Tatum passing the rock to Holiday. Tatum has added 4.6 assists per game this season. Meanwhile, his line is set at 4.5 for assists today. Tatum has earned at least seven assists in three consecutive games. He’s also earned at least five assists in 60% of his last 20 and six of his previous 10.
The Heat rank 28th in assists allowed to small forwards and Tatum is really racking up the assists lately. Take his Over.
Finally, we’ll roll with Jaylen Brown to go Over 5.5 rebounds. Brown has earned 5.5 rebounds per game this season. However, he’s added at least six rebounds in seven of his last ten and is on a six-game streak with at least six rebounds.
With Brown facing a Miami team that ranks just 23rd in rebounds allowed to shooting guards, we’ll roll with Brown to get at least six rebounds.
Parlay Odds: +449
Sacramento Kings vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
- Leg 1: Jalen Williams Over 4.5 Assists (-140)
- Leg 2: Domantas Sabonis Over 13.5 Rebounds (-122)
- Leg 3: Chet Holmgren Over 1.5 Threes (-138)
We’ll start with Jalen Williams. Williams has earned at least five assists in 65% of his last 20 games. He’s also hit this line in two straight games and in six of his previous ten.
Williams only played 27 minutes in a loss on the road to Dallas yesterday. But he still managed seven assists in those 27 minutes. With the Kings ranking 22nd in the NBA in assists allowed, I’ve got Williams getting at least five assists in today’s game.
We’d love those assists to go to Chet Holmgren. Holmgren has nailed at least two threes in five straight games. He’s also hit this line in seven of his last ten games. The Kings are typically good at defending the three against centers. However, not all centers are shooters. Holmgren is. Holmgren has averaged 3.3 threes in four games in February on 6.3 attempts. He’s shooting 52% from three in those four games. Take his Over.
Meanwhile, Sacramento’s center, Domantas Sabonis, should clean up the glass very well today. Sabonis leads the NBA with 13.2 rebounds per game. However, he’s earned 14 or more rebounds in six of his last ten games. In 31 minutes on Friday against the Nuggets, Sabonis tallied 17 rebounds. He’s added three triple-doubles in February, and it’s not even the middle of February yet.
Take Sabonis to add at least 14 rebounds in today’s game to complete the parlay.
Parlay Odds: +406
