Today’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Here are my favorite plays for tonight's games. 

Atlanta Hawks at Dallas Mavericks

  • Leg 1: Dejounte Murray OVER 18.5 Points
  • Leg 2: Christian Wood OVER 9.5 Rebounds
  • Leg 3: Luka Doncic OVER 34.5 Points

With a 232 over/under point total, there should be fireworks tonight. And life is too short to bet the under.

Dallas is one of the slowest teams in the NBA but with Atlanta's top-10 pace of play, Dallas will have plenty of opportunities to score and if you're giving Doncic opportunities, I expect him to capitalize.

While the Mavs are one of the worst rebounding teams in the NBA, Atlanta isn't much better. Wood's rebounding total is too low here and the over is an incredible value. Murray should perform well against a sub-par defense. He's been averaging over 20 points this season and I expect him to do the same tonight.

Parlay Odds: +650

Sacramento Kings at Los Angeles Lakers 

  • Leg 1: Keegan Murray OVER 11.5 Points
  • Leg 2: Harrison Barnes OVER 5.5 Rebounds
  • Leg 2: De'Aaron Fox OVER 25.5 Points  

For a bit more of a value SGP, look no further than the Sacramento Kings. With LeBron James questionable tonight, I'm focusing on the Kings this game.

The Lakers and Kings both have top paces of play in the league and it's not as if the 20th-ranked Los Angeles defense will do much to stop Murray and Fox. Murray going over his points total is one of the BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet best plays with a +40 percent expected value.

Barnes' rebound total could be bet at 4.5 too if you aren't feeling as risky, but I see him getting to six boards tonight in Los Angeles.       

Parlay Odds: +900

Miami Heat at New Orleans Pelicans

  • Leg 1: Tyler Herro OVER 18.5 Points
  • Leg 2: Trey Murphy III UNDER 13.5 Points 
  • Leg 3: CJ McCollum UNDER 24.5 Points

Okay, I can't always bet overs. While I love New Orleans, I think they might have some problems facing off against Miami's fourth-ranked defense. Furthermore, Miami's 28th-ranked pace of play is a big pace-down spot for New Orleans.

On this current road trip, McCollum has been hot with two 30+ point games but it's tough to keep that up, and he's due for regressing to his 21 points per game average. On the other hand, you have Tyler Herro, who is due for some major positive regression in the points category after coming missing three games. 

Parlay Odds: +625
