by |

With the NFL heading into the playoffs after this week, it’s time to get used to a heavy NBA slate on Sundays.

That’s what we’ve got tonight. We’ve got a nine-game slate in the NBA, with five games with a tip-off before 7:00 pm ET. And then four more games in the night window.

Here are a couple of same-game parlays to consider with today’s NBA action.

NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: January 8, 2023

Brooklyn Nets vs. Miami Heat

  • Leg 1: Kyrie Irving Over 25.5 Points (-113)
  • Leg 2: Kevin Durant Over 4.5 Assists (-156)
  • Leg 3: Kyrie Irving Over 4.5 Rebounds (-113)

I’m going heavy on the two star players on the Nets. We’ll start with Kyrie Irving.

Irving has added about 26 points per game while shooting 48.9% from the field. In January, he’s already attempted 60 shots in three games and reached 25 points or more in two. He’ll need 26 for tonight’s game, but he’s hit 26 points in 59% of the games played this season.

I also like Irving in the rebounding department. He’s averaged five rebounds per game this season and is coming off a five-rebound performance in his last game. Irving has reached at least five rebounds in 62% of games this season.

Finally, although Kevin Durant is the leading scorer for the Nets, I like him to earn at least five assists. Durant has added 5.4 assists per game and has earned at least five assists in 66% of games this season. In his last 20 games, Durant has reached at least five assists in 75% of games.

Let’s bet on the big duo for the Nets to make some profit.

Parlay Odds: +430

Atlanta Hawks vs. Los Angeles Clippers

  • Leg 1: Dejounte Murray Over 19.5 Points (-118)
  • Leg 2: Trae Young Over 2.5 Rebounds (-170)
  • Leg 3: Onyeka Okongwu Under 9.5 Rebounds (-120)

It’s always a mystery who will play for the Clippers this year. But at least we have a reliable lineup with the Hawks.

Dejounte Murray has averaged 20.5 points per game this season. His line is set at 19.5, despite hitting at least 20 points in four f his last five games. Murray has earned at least 20 points in 65% of games this season but is coming off a 16-point performance, which is why his line is a bit lower than usual. We’ll take it.

Meanwhile, Trae Young plays over 30 minutes a night. Yet, his rebound prop is set at 2.5. It’s a bit juiced, but Young has earned about three rebounds per game this season. He’s hit three or more rebounds in 60% of games this year. He would need one rebound every 10 minutes or every quarter. He should get there.

Finally, Onyeka Okongwu has averaged 7.2 rebounds per game. He’s reached seven rebounds in each of his last two games, but his rebound prop is now at 9.5. Okongwu has hit ten rebounds in just 21% of games and has only reached ten rebounds in five of his last 20 games. Take his under to finish off the parlay.

Parlay Odds: +441
