NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Monday (10/31)
We’ve got plenty of basketball to bet on tonight with a seven-game slate.
The Milwaukee Bucks will look to stay undefeated, while teams like the Nets and 76ers will look to add a win to their resume after starting the season with losing records.
Here are a couple of same-game parlays to consider for tonight’s Halloween slate.
NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions
Indiana Pacers vs. Brooklyn Nets
- Leg 1: Tyrese Haliburton Over 20.5 Points (-113)
- Leg 2: Jalen Smith Over 14.5 Points (-125)
- Leg 3: Ben Simmons Under 9.5 Points (-136)
The Nets lost to the Pacers at home, 125-116. They’re now 1-5 on the year and still don’t look like a playoff contender.
Eventually, that will change, but I’m ready to pick on the Nets for now.
Tyrese Haliburton has averaged 23.4 points per game this season. He’s coming off a 26-point performance against the Nets, where he nailed 6-of-10 from downtown and shot 43.8% from the field in 33 minutes. He’s only had two games with fewer than 21 points.
Meanwhile, Jalen Smith has been excellent for the Pacers this year. He’s only averaging 13.1 points per game, but that’s due to playing just seven minutes against the Spurs on October 21. He also scored just eight points against the Nets in their last game, going 3-for-14 from the field. On the season, he’s shooting 46.7%. Watch Smith’s average increase in tonight’s game against the Nets.
Finally, Ben Simmons of the Nets has scored just 6.2 points per game. But his line is sitting at 9.5 points. He’s averaging just 5.7 shots per game and has made 2.5 shots per game. He’s not shooting threes, so even if he makes four shots, that would still be just eight points. He hasn’t scored 10 points all season.

Detroit Pistons vs. Milwaukee Bucks
- Leg 1: Jrue Holiday Under 19.5 Points (-113)
- Leg 2: Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 12.5 Rebounds (-111)
- Leg 3: Grayson Allen Under 2.5 Threes (-150)
The Bucks are currently 5-0 to begin the season and will now take on a Detroit Pistons team playing the second game of a back-to-back.
Jrue Holiday is second on the team in points scored, with 18 points per game. His line is set at 19.5 points tonight, despite only scoring 20 or more points in one game this year. Holiday added 34 points against the Hawks on Saturday, which is why his prop is a bit higher.
On the other hand, Giannis Antetokounmpo has hauled in at least 12 rebounds in every game this season. He’s hit 13 or more rebounds in four of the first five games. He’s been highly active on the glass and is earning about 35 minutes per game.
Lastly, Grayson Allen has been a disappointment for the Bucks so far. He’s averaging 1.8 threes per game while shooting just 32.1% from downtown this season. He’s attempting nearly six threes per game but still hasn’t shot the ball well. I’m looking to take advantage of his shooting woes. Until the shots start to fall, I’ll fade Allen’s three-point attempts.
He was so bad against Atlanta on Saturday that Allen earned just 20 minutes, despite usually earning 28-32 minutes.
