Tuesday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlays & Picks
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Grizzlies vs. Spurs Same Game Parlay
Leg #1: Keldon Johnson Over 6.5 Rebounds (-104)
The Grizzlies are allowing the fifth-most rebounds per game, so even without Victor Wembanyama, I expect the Spurs to have success against them tonight. In his first game without Wembanyama, Keldon Johnson grabbed 12 rebounds against the Kings.
Johnson now has at least seven rebounds in four of his last five games, despite playing 24 minutes or fewer in each of those contests.
Leg #2: Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 2.5 Made Three-Pointers (+150)
Jaren Jackson Jr. has made three or more three-pointers in just two games this season, but he takes on one of the worst three-point shooting defenses in the league tonight. The Spurs are allowing opponents to make 38.9% of their three-pointers, which ranks fourth-worst.
While Jackson only made two threes in his last game, he did put up eight attempts. He's shooting 37.7% from deep this season. If he can shoot at least five threes, as he's done in three of his last five games, I like him to hit the over in this favorable matchup.
Leg #3: De'Aaron Fox 25+ Points (-158)
Without Victor Wembanyama, De’Aaron Fox set a season-high with 28 points against the Kings on Sunday. He's only played in five games this season, but he's topped 20 points four times.
While Sunday's performance was his first with more than 25 points, he's scored 24 points twice. The Grizzlies are allowing 119.8 points per game, which ranks 21st in the league. With Fox entering this game with a high floor, I expect a huge game from him as the Spurs' clear leading scorer.
Parlay Odds: +600
Suns vs. Trail Blazers Same Game Parlay
Leg #1: Devin Booker Over 6.5 Assists (-163)
The safest leg of this parlay features Devin Booker dishing out at least seven assists. He has recorded at least seven dimes in four of his last five games, and he's averaging exactly seven assists per game this season.
Booker only failed to hit this number in four games. The Trail Blazers are allowing 26.6 assists per game, which ranks 16th in the league. That's the only reason I'm not taking Booker to record at least eight assists at +107 odds.
Leg #2: Dillon Brooks 20+ Points (+103)
Dillon Brooks is hot right now, dropping at least 32 points in back-to-back games. Without Jalen Green and Grayson Allen, he'll continue to be a very important piece of this offense, and tonight, he goes against one of the worst defenses in the NBA.
The Trail Blazers are allowing 122.2 points per game, which ranks 26th in the league. Brooks has scored at least 20 points in two of his three games against bottom-10 scoring defenses, including 32 against the Pacers, who are allowing just 1.2 more points per game than the Trail Blazers.
Leg #3: Trail Blazers -2.5 (-115)
The Trail Blazers have lost four of their last five games, but each of those contests was played on the road. They're 3-2 at home this season, with wins over the Warriors, Nuggets and Thunder.
While the Suns are likely the better team when they're at full strength, they're missing two of their four leading scorers. At home for the first time in nearly two weeks, look for the Trail Blazers to get the job done against an injury-riddled team.
Parlay Odds: +575
