Friday's Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets
(Odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook)
Philadelphia 76ers vs. Toronto Raptors
- Leg 1: Joel Embiid Under 35.5 Points (-115)
- Leg 2: Jakob Poeltl Over 7.5 Rebounds (-119)
- Leg 3: OG Anunoby Over 1.5 Three Pointers (-157)
Embiid has averaged 31 points against the Raptors this season. That is over four points under tonight's betting line. The line is too high tonight for Embiid to consistently score over 35.5 points. This game is a chance to get betting value on the under.
I like Poeltl tonight. He averages 8.1 rebounds per game. That is enough for bettors to take the over tonight. He has the size to be competitive on the boards against Embiid. The Raptors will need Poeltl to play defense and rebound tonight. That means Poeltl will have the opportunity to grab rebounds.
Anunoby shoots 4 to 5 three-point shots a game. That is enough for bettors to add this leg to their parlay. He gets high-quality looks and converts on 37% of his shots. The Raptors will get behind in this matchup. They will need players to shoot three-pointers to catch up. That means Anunoby could get additional shots off tonight.
Parlay Odds: +460
Brooklyn Nets vs. Denver Nuggets
- Leg 1: Cam Thomas Over 23.5 Points (-119)
- Leg 2: Jamal Murray Over 2.5 Three Pointers (-109)
- Leg 3: Nikola Jokic Over 26.5 Points (-129)
Cam Thomas scores over 24 points per game with the Nets. That is because he is their No. 1 option on offense and gets plenty of opportunities to shoot the ball. Those opportunities will turn into points tonight when the Nets face the Denver Nuggets.
The last time these teams played, Murray made two baskets from deep. He only played 22 minutes. Murray will have more playing time than the past time these teams played. That additional time will mean more shot attempts for Murray and more three-point shots.
Nikola Jokic is the best man in the league. He can do everything, and that includes scoring the basketball. The Nets lack the size and defenders to slow Jokic down. That will mean more points for Jokic tonight.
Parlay Odds: +567
Sacramento Kings vs. Phoenix Suns
- Leg 1: Kevin Durant Under 30.5 Points (-127)
- Leg 2: Domantas Sabonis Over 20.5 Points (-113)
Kevin Durant can score points, but this number is too high. Durant averages 31 points per game. The Sacramento Kings have one of the stronger defenses, and that will limit Durant's opportunities. That defense and the higher betting line tonight will make this difficult for Durant.
Domantas Sabonis has favored the match-up today. Jusuf Nurkic is out, and the Suns do not have the big men to defend Sabonis. That will mean more opportunity for Sabonis to get points tonight. That makes this one of the better bets of the night.
Keegan Murray has made a living shooting the three-ball since he entered the NBA. This betting line is a little too high for him tonight. He averages seven attempts per game. That means he would need to make over 50% of his shots to get over this line.
Parlay Odds: +430
