Today’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Picks

Cleveland Cavaliers at Orlando Magic

Cleveland may only be favored by four in this game but to me, it is a heavy Magic fade night.

Orlando generally may be a better rebounding team but their board props are simply too high. Wendell Carter Jr. has been averaging shy of nine rebounds a game and has only reached double-digits once in his last seven games. I don’t know where 9.5 comes from and to get it a +100 is a steal.

Banchero is in a similar boat, but I am obviously a lot more confident throwing his leg in there at -142 instead. It is a chalky play but a nice foundation for this SGP.

Cleveland’s slowest pace of play in the league, combined with their top-ranked defensive efficiency is a combination for hammering the unders, especially when it comes to scoring. I see Fultz as the best value to fade in the scoring department. 

Parlay Odds: +530

Miami Heat at Philadelphia 76ers

This is more of a value play, and Adebayo is currently questionable, so be warned.

Still, I like this parlay, both Adebayo’s scoring and rebound probs are simply too low, probably due to his quad strain. However, if he plays, those numbers will rise before game time, so it’s good to get on it early. If he’s out, you’ll simply have a two-leg parlay to work with instead.

I got to the Embiid-Harden combo a lot but this time is a bit different. With Tyrese Maxey and P.J. Tucker both questionable, I expect the two stars to increase their already high usage rate, but the scoring props are both too high for them already, so I’m pivoting to rebounds and assists. 

The BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet tags Harden’s rebound total going over as a 67 percent chance of hitting and it has hit in nine of his last 15 games. To pair that with Embiid’s plus money assist total at home, I will take it all day.

Parlay Odds: +668
