There are only five games on the NBA slate, three starting by 6 PM ET or sooner. Make sure to get your bets in early if you’re looking for some NBA action!
We’ve added a new tool called the Same Game Parlay Builder. You can find instant insight with recommendations and grades of a particular leg in the parlay!
Here are two same game parlays using the builder as a helping tool.
Sunday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Milwaukee Bucks
- Leg 1: Chet Holmgren Over 15.5 Points (-108)
- Leg 2: Brook Lopez Over 9.5 Points (-113)
- Leg 3: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 5.5 Rebounds (-125)
Chet Holmgren has averaged 17.1 points per game this season. He’s also nailed 54.1% from the field this season. This month, he’s scored 16.6 points with a 52.5% field goal percentage. So he’s been a little bit worse, but still good enough to hit the Over tonight.
The Bucks are 26th in the NBA in points allowed to centers. Meanwhile, Holmgren has nailed this line in three consecutive games, including a 35-point outburst on Wednesday.
We’ll pair Holmgren’s points with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s rebounds. He’s averaged 5.6 rebounds per game but has hit this line in four of his last five and six of his previous ten. The Bucks rank 24th in rebounds allowed to point guards this year. Shai has had at least seven rebounds in four of the previous five.
Finally, we’ll roll with Brook Lopez to score at least 10 points. Lopez has hit this line in nearly 70% of games this season. He’s also had success against the Thunder in previous games last season. On Thursday, Lopez took nine shots and drained seven of them to score 17 points. We’ll gladly take 9.5 points tonight.
Parlay Odds: +480
Indiana Pacers vs. Los Angeles Lakers
- Leg 1: Rui Hachimura Over 13.5 Points (-115)
- Leg 2: Anthony Davis Under 25.5 Points (-111)
- Leg 3: D’Angelo Russell Over 5.5 Assists (-113)
The Indiana Pacers rank dead last in points allowed to power forwards this season. Meanwhile, Rui Hachimura has added at least 14 points in five consecutive games. In those five games, Hachimura has attempted at least ten shots. This month, he’s averaged nearly 12 shots per game and is shooting about 59% from the field.
On the other hand, I’m not nearly as high on Anthony Davis. Davis has scored at least 26 points in only two of his last ten games. Indiana ranks 11th in points allowed to centers, and despite Davis scoring ten makes in each of his previous two games, he hasn’t gone over this mark. Davis is playing well on the glass. He’s not in any slump. He’s just not getting the attempts to get 26 points.
Hopefully, D’Angelo Russell will throw some assists to Hachimura and not Davis. Still, Davis will be the recipient of some of those dishes. That’s fine.
Before the Lakers’ last matchup, Russell had two consecutive games with 10+ assists. He’s also added at least six assists in four of his last games.
Parlay Odds: +484
