Thursday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Boston Celtics @ Atlanta Hawks

The Hawks are playing the second half of a back-to-back and will have their work cut out for them in this one. They’re 16-point home underdogs to the big, bad Boston Celtics. Atlanta actually mounted a 30-point come-from-behind victory against them on Monday, so you never know what could happen here. The most likely scenario is that Dejounte Murray leads the charge for the Hawks, as he always does. He has gone over this assist line in 14/21 games (67%) without Trae Young this season, averaging nine assists per game, and had 15 against Boston two days ago.

With so many injuries to their team, Clint Capela is essentially the lone big man on the team right now. Despite finishing with just 17 points two days ago, this is a solid spot for Kristaps Porzingis to go over his point total. When he’s gone head-to-head with him, he has gone over this line in 8/12 games, averaging 20.6 per game. Atlanta plays fast, so Porzingis should see plenty of scoring opportunities here.

Speaking of those injuries, if Murray will be dishing it out, look for De’Andre Hunter to be scoring. He put up 24 against Boston the other night and has found 20+ points in four of his last seven, averaging 17.9 per game. Admittedly, this isn’t the best matchup for Hunter, but given the lack of weapons in the offense right now, someone will have to step up. If they can keep this close, Hunter should be able to find 18 here.

Parlay Odds: +390

Milwaukee Bucks @ New Orleans Pelicans

With Brandon Ingram sidelined for the foreseeable future, Zion is seeing a big uptick in assists. He racked up 10 just last game in a high-tempo game against the OKC Thunder. This game profiles similar in terms of pace considering Milwaukee is fifth in that category. Zion has recorded six assists in five of seven games without B.I., averaging 6.7 per game.

With Zion struggling to score inside the paint against Giannis and co., look for CJ McCollum to do most of the scoring for the Pelicans in this one. Excluding a game he played just 15 minutes, McCollum has 23+ points in six of seven games without Ingram, averaging 26.4 points per game. The Bucks have allowed the second-most points to opposing Point Guards this season and given the hit rate without Ingram, this is a smash spot for CJ.

Khris Middleton continues to thrash this line as of late. He has eclipsed this mark in 18 of his last 20 games when he plays at least 22 minutes. Milwaukee’s veteran Small-Forward is averaging 30.1 PRA per game across those contests. With a spread of just two points, he should find plenty of time on the floor in this one, and go over this mark once again.

Parlay Odds: +445
