NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Thursday (12/1)

by |

As the holiday season gets into full swing, there isn't any other better way to celebrate than some consistent winnings from these NBA props. It's been a solid season, so let's keep the winning ways going. With only one game on the slate tonight, the pickings are slim. As I write this, the odds are only currently available for Mavs players, but I'll also give prop predictions for the Pistons.

All odds via DraftKings Sportsbook

Dallas Mavericks vs. Detroit Pistons

  • Leg 1: Luka Doncic UNDER 30.5 points (-105)
  • Leg 2: Spencer Dinwiddie UNDER 4.5 assists (-115)
  • Leg 3: Pistons UNDER 106.5 (+100)

For the wet blanket option, this is your parlay. It may not be the most exciting parlay you've ever bet on, but the numbers back up the decisions.

While the Mavericks are facing the worst defense in the league efficiency-wise, the numbers have well adjusted for that. Dallas is the slowest pace team in the league, and Detroit isn't all too run and gun either. I expect the Mavs to be on cruise control for this game, and I can't imagine the players reaching these high prop totals.

With the Mavericks’ slow pace and above-average defense, I don't see the Pistons eclipsing 107, especially with starters either questionable or recently coming off injuries.

Parlay Odds: +550

Otherwise, I'd identify rebounding odds for either Marvin Bagley III or Isaiah Stewart. Dallas has the worst rebounding rate in the country, offensively too. While Detroit's isn't much better, this is an awesome opportunity for some Pistons to wrack up some boards, especially on the offensive glass.

If Jaden Ivey plays, I'd target his over points total. With the questionable tag, I'm assuming it will be lower than it should be. The man is talented, though, and will have to put in a lot of work if they expect to keep it close here. Obviously, monitor injury news or any potential minutes limits.
