Thursday’s Best NBA Playoffs Same Game Parlays

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook

Sacramento Kings at Golden State Warriors

For a semi-correlated yet valuable parlay I am going with these three tonight.

This entire season, the Warriors have been the ones to target overs against when playing the prop game. They have the fastest pace in the NBA without a top-15 defense. Without Draymond Green on the court, the Warriors could suffer, and be in for a tough game defensively.

Wiggins is currently questionable for tonight but I am obviously writing as if he will play. With my expectation that Sacramento will score at a high clip, I don't see Wiggins gaining many opportunities in the rebounding department. I see Trey Lyles as a value due to the bench players gaining more value within the prop market. I will be putting one unit on this play.

Parlay Odds: +650


Philadelphia 76ers at Brooklyn Nets

In a game that is the lowest total on today's slate by a wide margin, I am all in on the overs for Philadelphia, especially from the star players.

Joel Embiid's point total should be at 32 or 33. Not 30.5. That value is absurd considering he's averaged basically 33 all year and more than 32 for the final two months. After two games of 20 and 26 points outings, his over-point total offers solid value.

Philadelphia's defense will give Brooklyn a hard time and Dinwiddie's assist total going under has to be one of the best values on the slate. I feel good here and will be putting one unit on this play.

Parlay Odds: +575 


Phoenix Suns at Los Angeles Clippers

This game just seems like it will go the Suns’ way. While they haven't played many games with the full squad, they are a different beast when everyone is healthy. The Suns are 6-1 in Kevin Durant's last seven games since returning from injury. 

However, it's not just Durant who benefits, although his over 28.5 points prop bet has a 68 percent chance of hitting. Deandre Ayton over points total is one of the best values on the slate tomorrow, with the BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet giving it a +33 percent bet rating. 

Booker with plus money for over 4.5 boards feels like a steal, especially with a parlay total of +700. This will be a one-unit wager.

Parlay Odds: +700
