NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Thursday (12/22)

San Antonio Spurs vs. New Orleans Pelicans

  • Leg 1: Trey Murphy III UNDER 13.5 Points (+105)
  • Leg 2: Herbert Jones UNDER 11.5 Points (+110)
  • Leg 3: Tre Jones OVER 6.5 Assists (-105)

If you've ever been taught to zig while everyone else zags, this is your moment.

The Spurs have the worst defense in the league, ranking last in defensive efficiency. Their pace sits at the eighth highest in the league with opponents reaching 100 points with ease on a nightly basis. Nine times out of ten, these are good points to bet opponents over, but in this instance, I think you should zig.

The books overcompensated for the point total, and the public still has only bet them higher. It is very easy to bet against the Spurs, but the sharp move here is to play the under and fade the public. 

Parlay Odds: +740   

Washington Wizards vs. Utah Jazz

  • Leg 1: Mike Conley OVER 10.5 Points (-105)
  • Leg 2: Jarred Vanderbilt OVER 7.5 Rebounds (-125)
  • Leg 3: Jazz OVER 119.5 (+105)

Welcome to the Mike Conley game ladies and gentlemen. The Wizards’ defense won't know what hit them.

After coming off some missed time, the Utah point guard has been flying under the radar since coming back from injury but I'm pegging this as his coming out party against a sub-par Wizards defense. With Kristaps Porzingis questionable, I especially love the Jazz to route Washington tonight, and Vanderbilt should eat up some boards to go along with it.

The BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet agrees with Conley's point total projected closer to 14.2 which should give plenty of leeway for him to reach the over. 

Parlay Odds: +620
