The NBA has added 11 games to tonight’s slate. The Indiana Pacers and Los Angeles Lakers will play one game on ESPN at 4:00 p.m. ET. ESPN initially thought Luka Doncic would make his debut with the Lakers, but that debut likely won’t happen until Monday. Plus, it looks like LeBron James could miss this game, too.
Meanwhile, the Knicks will battle the Celtics later tonight on ABC. Here are my top NBA same game parlay picks and predictions for Saturday’s game Celtics vs. Knicks.

Celtics vs. Knicks
- Leg 1: Mikal Bridges Under 17.5 Points (-122)
- Leg 2: Karl-Anthony Towns Under 3.5 Assists (-166)
- Leg 3: Karl-Anthony Towns Under 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (+100)
Mikal Bridges has scored at least 18 points in five of his last 10 games. However, he’s only earned at least 18 points in four of his previous 10 head-to-head matchups against the Celtics. The Celtics have also held small forwards to fewer than 20 points per game, ranking fifth in the NBA. The Celtics also rank eighth in field goals made by small forwards this season. Take Bridges to go under his points total.
Meanwhile, Karl-Anthony Towns hasn’t recorded four or more assists in five of his last six games. It likely won’t get any easier with a matchup against the Celtics, who rank second in the NBA in assists allowed to centers this season. Plus, Towns has only had two potential assists in each of his last two games.
Towns has also added just 1.3 three-pointers per game over the last 10. Beyond that, he’s hit at least two threes just once in his previous four head-to-head games against the Celtics. Boston ranks first in the NBA in points allowed to centers this season. They’ve also allowed just 1.03 three-pointers per game to centers. We’re fully fading Towns tonight.
