Without Giannis Antetokounmpo, can the Milwaukee Bucks keep pace with the Philadelphia 76ers, or are the 76ers bound to dominate? Then, the injury-depleted Utah Jazz take on the Los Angeles Clippers. Though the Jazz have the worst-scoring defense in basketball, the Clippers haven't had much offensive success against them this year. Will that change tonight? Below are the best NBA same-game parlays (SGP) for Tuesday, January 27th.

Bucks vs. 76ers Same Game Parlay
Leg #1: 76ers -10.5 (-110)
For the third time this season, Giannis Antetokounmpo won't be taking the court against the 76ers. When he missed the last meeting between these two teams, the 76ers won 116-101. The first meeting was much closer, as the two teams went to overtime, but in the extra period, the 76ers pulled away to win by nine.
Both of those games were played in Milwaukee, while tonight's will be in Philadelphia. Though the 76ers have lost three out of four, the Bucks simply aren't good enough to trust without their best player.
Leg #2: Quentin Grimes Over 1.5 Made Three-Pointers (+165)
Quentin Grimes hasn't made a three-pointer in three consecutive games, which is really the only reason his price is as good as it is. Grimes is averaging 1.9 made three-pointers per game this season.
Grimes is averaging just 1.4 makes per game in January and has made two in a game just twice in his last 11 games, but he's shot very well against the Bucks. He went 6-of-7 from deep the last time these teams met, and he was 3-of-9 in the first meeting. The Bucks are allowing the ninth-most three-pointers per game.
Leg #3: Myles Turner Over 6.5 Rebounds (+114)
Myles Turner has pulled down at least seven rebounds in back-to-back games. Though he only had two boards the last time these teams met, he had 10 in the first contest. The 76ers have struggled to keep opponents off the glass this season, giving up an average of 45.3 rebounds per game, the eighth-most in the league.
This number is set higher than Turner's average of 5.4 rebounds per game, but that is baked into the very good price.

Clippers vs. Jazz Same Game Parlay
Leg #1: Brook Lopez Over 1.5 Made Three-Pointers (+116)
The Jazz are allowing 15.8 three-pointers per game, the most in the NBA. The first time Brook Lopez faced them, he went 5-of-11 from long range. However, his most recent performance against them is why we're getting this prop at such a good price.
On New Year's Day, Lopez was just 1-of-12 from deep. Since then, he's only made more than one three-pointer in four of his last 12 games. That said, Lopez is shooting 32.7% from deep this season, and if history repeats, he will put up plenty of attempts tonight.
Leg #2: Clippers Team Total Under 120.5 Points (-115)
The Jazz are allowing 127.8 points per game, which is 4.7 more per contest than the Wizards, who are allowing the second-most per game. But the Clippers are one of the lowest-scoring teams in the league, averaging just 112.6 points per game.
The Clippers have yet to score more than 118 points against the Jazz this season. When these two teams met in Utah in the first game of the season, the Clippers scored just 108 points. This game is once again in Utah, and I'm expecting the Clippers to play this game at their pace and keep it low-scoring.
Leg #3: Brice Sensabaugh Over 14.5 Points (+107)
Considering the Clippers are allowing the eighth-fewest points per game, this bet may seem counterintuitive. However, with both Lauri Markkanen and Keyonte George likely missing this game, Brice Sensabaugh is the team's leading scorer entering tonight.
Though he's only averaging 11.7 points per game, Sensabaugh had a great January. He's averaging 18.3 points per game, scoring at least 23 points in four of his last five contests. Sensabaugh has scored 20 points in each of his games against the Clippers this season.
