NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Sunday (3/12)

by |

We’ll get some college basketball in the afternoon and then some NBA as we await Selection Sunday in college basketball.

It’s going to be a perfect day!

I’ve added two same-game parlays for tonight’s NBA slate. The later games are projected to be the closer games. But I’ve also got my eye on an earlier game!

Also, take a look at our other best bets for Sunday:

Sunday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Brooklyn Nets vs. Denver Nuggets

I’m a big Michael Porter Jr. fan tonight.

Michael Porter Jr. has reached at least 16 points in 62% of games this year. He’s also hit this line in seven of his last ten games and in 65% of his last 20 games. He’s shooting 48.6% from the floor and has averaged a solid amount of three-point attempts per game too.

In March, Porter Jr. has only shot 39.1% from downtown while attempting nearly six threes per game. But he’s still averaging 16.3 points after two poor performances from the field. He will earn over 20 minutes and probably see somewhere in the 30s tonight. That should help him add plenty of points from the field. When he adds points, they typically come from downtown, so I’ve also added his three-point prop.

Porter Jr. has also added 5.4 rebounds per game this season. Again, if he gets minutes, he’ll get this number. He’s added at least five rebounds in 64% of games this season and has hit this number in seven of his last ten. I love the consistency of Porter Jr.

Lastly, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope has hit at least three assists in his last five games. Hopefully, those assists go to Porter Jr., But overall, the Nuggets have so many scoring options. Caldwell-Pope is making things happen, with at least four assists in his last five games.

Parlay Odds: +522

New York Knicks vs. Los Angeles Lakers

D’Angelo Russell returned to the Lakers lineup on Friday and added 28 points with nine assists in 31 minutes. He shot 58.8% from the floor, including 5-of-8 from downtown.

Russell was playing freely and enjoying himself again. That’s big news for the Lakers. I don’t want to overreact, but Russell played so well against Toronto in his return. Now he’s facing a Knicks team that has struggled over the last week.

On the other hand, RJ Barrett has earned 5.2 rebounds per game this season. He’s hit at least five rebounds in 58% of games this season and in three of his last five games. Over the last four games, Barrett has 26 rebounds, with only one game where he went under. I’ll back Barrett to crash the glass tonight and earn at least five rebounds.

Parlay Odds: +433
