Today's Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Indiana Pacers at Orlando Magic

  • Leg 1: Markelle Fultz OVER 11.5 Points (-104)
  • Leg 2: Paolo Banchero OVER 2.5 Assists (-150)
  • Leg 3: Aaron Nesmith UNDER 4.5 Rebounds (+104)

I've always loved cooking up an SGP with the points-rebounds-assists trifecta. And I love this one.

Indiana's lacking defense and big pace-up spot for the Magic gives me confidence in their ability to score across the board. The semi-correlated play of Fultz over points with Banchero over assists is where I saw the most value. You're welcome to mix and match because I do expect Orlando's offense to do much better than usual tonight.

Indiana is one of the worst rebounding teams in the nation and with a projected efficient scoring night from Orlando, Nesmith won't get as many opportunities on the glass. When Indiana does rebound the ball, I expect Myles Turner to do the bulk of the work on the boards. This is a relatively chalky SGP, and I'll be throwing one unit on it. 

Parlay Odds: +471 

Brooklyn Nets at Philadelphia 76ers

  • Leg 1: Ben Simmons OVER 8.5 Points (-102)
  • Leg 2: Kyrie Irving UNDER 6.5 Assists (+102)
  • Leg 3: Nic Claxton UNDER 9.5 Rebounds (-130)

Ben Simmons revenge game, anyone?

While I do imagine Ben Simmons' props will be bet heavily tonight, his point total is simply too low. I would've imagined this to be closer to 10, despite facing off against one of the better defenses in the league in a pace-down spot.

Due to the aforementioned pace-down spot, I'm fading Kyrie and his facilitating. He's averaged 6.6 assists per game over the last two weeks but that number is due to regress to his seasonal average of 5.0 per game. Tonight is the perfect night for just that.

Joel Embiid did miss the last game with a left foot injury and is questionable for tonight. If he does play, then I would seriously hammer the Claxton under the rebound prop but that changes a bit if Embiid is out. Still, if Embiid sits again, I see some solid value being bet on the under if you wait closer to game time for the line to move. This is a more value-based parlay, and I'll be throwing one unit on it. 

Parlay Odds: +617

Minnesota Timberwolves at New Orleans Pelicans

  • Leg 1: Rudy Gobert OVER 10.5 Rebounds (-120)
  • Leg 2: D'Angelo Russell OVER 6.5 Assists (-118)
  • Leg 3: D'Angelo Russell OVER 17.5 Points (-120)

I call this the Minnesota Special.

Russell has been overperforming a bit in the last week but we've seen a small bump inminutes and usage along with it, both conducive that it might be a bit more sustainable. He's hit the 6.5 assist mark in four of his last five games and the 17.5 points mark in four of his last five games as well. I'm going to keep riding the wave here tonight in a matchup against the Pelicans.

Rudy Gobert is questionable tonight but played 35 minutes on Monday so I expect him to suit up. Due to the questionable tag, his props are simply too low. The BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet tags this as one of the better values on the slate, with a +22 percent expected value. I have to agree and am putting one unit on this parlay.

Parlay Odds: +479

Last Week: 2-4
This Month: 5-13
