Friday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlays

(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Houston comes into this contest having won eight of their last games straight. Whereas Miami is on the opposite end of that spectrum, losing in nine games in a row. Miami has four wins in their last 20 contests. 
 
The Rockets lost their first matchup against the Heat earlier this season. Given how the year has played out for both teams, we are expecting a completely different outcome this time around. 
 
Miami has only scored 110 points or more in one game over the last 10. We are going to kick up the total just a bit to give ourselves a little wiggle room in case anything unforeseen should happen. The Heat are averaging 102.2 points in the last 10 games, and face a Rockets defense who are tied for the third-best defensive rating over the last 10 contests. 
 
The Heat are ranked in the bottom five in both efficient field goal percentage, and true shooting percentage over their last 10 games. Miami is shooting 45% from the field over the course of their nine-game losing streak. The Rockets are averaging almost 59 points in the first half in the last nine games, while Miami is barely scoring 53 points in the first 24 minutes of gameplay. 
 
Jalen Green is averaging 3.1 three-pointers per contest in the month of March while shooting 34% from beyond the arc. Green has only knocked down four or more three-pointers in four of the eleven games played this month. In their first matchup against the Heat, Green made one of eight attempts from beyond the arc.

Ja Morant has already been ruled out for this contest- which puts the Grizzlies behind the proverbial eight ball right from the start. The Clippers will be at full-strength this evening, and they are coming of a major victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Los Angeles also has the benefit of rest in this matchup, having not played since Tuesday.
The Clippers are 18-4 when playing at the Intuit Dome as favorites going into the contest. The Grizzlies are 6-12, covering at a 33% clip when the team is an underdog on the road. Los Angeles is 11-6 when they have a rest advantage over their opponent. The Clippers are 8-2 at home over the last 10 games.
Los Angeles have exceeded their suggested team total in their last five games- scoring an average of 123.0 over that span. The Clippers are 12-10 this season against their team total when playing at home. Memphis is allowing just under 117 points over the last five games. However, they have conceded more than 119.5 points in three of those five games. 
 
Ivica Zubac is coming off of an extraordinary performance on Tuesday, where he scored 28 points while pulling-down 20 boards. Zubac is averaging 18.1 points, with 13.6 rebounds in the last 10 games played at home. The Los Angeles center is scoring at least 24.1 points while grabbing 13.0 rebounds in his last five games. 
Zubac is averaging 16 points, and 16 rebounds in the previous two contests against the Grizzlies. This includes a 20-point, 19-rebound performance. The Veteran center has recorded a double-double in 16-of-20 games played and in both matchups against Memphis this season.
