NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Thursday (10/27)

by |

After an exciting week in the NBA, there is more data for player props and parlays to get ahead of the curve. Each week, I will come at you with my favorite same-game parlay bets for your liking and win you some money throughout the season. With a four-game slate today, some options exist to build your perfect SGP but remember to take it slow. You don't want to blow your bankroll this early in the season. 

Here are my two favorite same-game parlay bets for tonight's slate.

All odds via DraftKings Sportsbook

Dallas Mavericks vs. Brooklyn Nets

  • Leg 1: Luka Doncic OVER 8.5 rebounds (-110)
  • Leg 2: Luka Doncic OVER 7.5 assists (-110)
  • Leg 3: Dorian Finney-Smith 2+ assists (+115)

Is there anything Luka can't do?

The man is a menace. In the early stages of the 2022-23 NBA seasons, Doncic boasts a 39.3 percent usage rate, the second highest in the NBA. He's averaging 34.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 7.7 assists per game, with 25 field goals attempted per contest.

While I am on my "fade Brooklyn" tour in the early get-go this season, I always love to support their opponents doing well. Coming off a loss to Milwaukee, I expect Brooklyn's 26th defense to continue to look sluggish and for Doncic to pick apart this Nets defense in every which way.

Dorian Finney-Smith has increased his assists totals in each game this season, and I am hopeful that trend can continue tonight. Someone has to feed Luka, right? 

Parlay Odds: +625

Los Angeles Clippers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

  • Leg 1: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander UNDER 6.5 assists (+120)
  • Leg 2: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander UNDER 6.5 rebounds (-170)
  • Leg 3: Los Angeles Clippers UNDER 111.5 points (-105) 

While I expect Luka and Co. to slice and dice Brooklyn, I can't say the same for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Co. facing off against the Clippers. Not only do the clippers represent the seventh-best defense in the league, but they also rank in the bottom half of the league in pace at 19th. The Thunder will have fewer possessions than they are accustomed to with their top-five-ranked pace of play.

While Gilgeous-Alexander is a solid player, there's only so much he can do. His 31 points-per-game average will come down, and he's still overperforming with 4.7 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game. The Thunder's 27th-ranked offensive efficiency isn't anything to write home about, either.

On the other side of the ball, the Clippers have struggled to produce points, ranking second to last in offensive rating this season. Oklahoma City's top-ten defense will give Los Angeles struggles in what I expect to be an all-around low-scoring game.
