NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Monday (12/18)
We’ve got 11 games on the NBA slate tonight!
While there are many games we’re waiting for injury news on, I’ve added multiple same-game parlays that don’t have many question marks regarding player availability.
Let’s get right to it!
Monday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Chicago Bulls vs. Philadelphia 76ers
- Leg 1: Joel Embiid Over 34.5 Points (-115)
- Leg 2: Tyrese Maxey Under 3.5 Rebounds (-140)
- Leg 3: DeMar DeRozan Over .5 Threes (-210)
- Leg 4: Joel Embiid Over .5 Threes (-200)
Joel Embiid has scored at least 35 points in four of his last five and six of his previous ten. He’s currently hit this line in three straight games despite averaging about 30 minutes a game.
Embiid has attempted over 23 shots per game in December. He’s also shot nearly 62% from the field, including 1.2 threes per game. Beyond that, Embiid has found his way to the foul line 11 times per game in the month. He’s also earned 40 points per game and is quickly rising up the MVP board.
Meanwhile, Tyrese Maxey has earned 3.9 rebounds per game. However, that stat keeps dropping for Maxey. He’s only added four or more rebounds in three of his last ten games. In December, he’s averaged 1.8 rebounds per game while playing over 32 minutes a night.
Finally, DeMar DeRozan has hit at least one three in 68% of games this season. He’s also nailed at least one three in eight of his last ten and leads the Bulls in scoring this season.
Parlay Odds: +475
Memphis Grizzlies vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
- Leg 1: Desmond Bane Under 5.5 Assists (+114)
- Leg 2: Jalen Williams Under 4.5 Rebounds (-166)
- Leg 3: Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 1.5 Threes (-150)
Desmond Bane leads the Grizzlies in scoring with 24.9 points per game. However, he’s only added 5.2 assists per game this season. Bane has only earned at least six assists in 35% of games this season. He’s also hit this line in just four of his last ten.
He’s going up against a Thunder defense that ranks 14th in assists against shooting guards. The Thunder should keep Bane close to his season average, which would be Under 5.5 assists.
Hopefully, it’s not Bane throwing Jaren Jackson Jr. any assists when he goes up for threes. Jackson Jr. has attempted over six threes per game in the month. He went 0-for-7 against the Rockets. However, he nailed at least two threes in five straight before that game. He’s also had recent success against the Thunder from last season.
On the other hand, Jalen Williams has had a great start to the season shooting the basketball. But he’s averaged only four rebounds per game this season. That wouldn’t be enough to hit his Over. Williams finished with just one rebound against the Nuggets last time out and has averaged 3.8 rebounds in December.
That rate is lower than his rate throughout the season. His rebound numbers are declining, while his scoring numbers are increasing.
Let’s finish the parlay by taking Under on Williams’ rebounds prop.
Parlay Odds: +445
