Tuesday’s Best Same Game Parlays
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Los Angeles Lakers at Philadelphia 76ers
- Leg 1: Under 217.5 Points (-110)
- Leg 2: Kelly Oubre Jr. 15+ Points (-240)
- Leg 3: Guerschon Yabusele 1+ Three-Pointers (-550)
Philadelphia will once again be without the services of Joel Embiid, as well as Paul George. Where the Lakers could look to be sitting one or two of their major stars. Nothing is official as of this morning, yet it does stand to reason for the Lakers to grant their best players some reprieve. This is certainly a game you should wait on before getting to the window.
The Sixers have recorded three wins over the past 10 contests. However, they face a Lakers team that may not be in the best position to pick up two road victories in as many nights. Oddsmakers seem to also be under the impression Los Angeles could be without both LeBron James and Anthony Davis. The spread would no doubt be much higher if these players were expected to suit up.
The under seems like the logical play here if the Lakers are not at full strength. What started as a one-sided contest against the Hornets last night turned into a fourth-quarter battle. Fresh legs are certainly something the Lakers will not have the benefit of.
When playing at home, the Sixers are only averaging 107.8 points per game on 44.4% shooting from the field. Philadelphia also has the sixth-worst effective field-goal percentage when playing at Wells Fargo Center.
Kelly Oubre Jr. has scored 15+ points in seven of his previous 10 games on 46% shooting from the field. Oubre has increased his percentage over the last five games to 48.1%. The Philadelphia shooting guard has scored 20+ points in two straight games and is in a great position to put up at least 15+ tonight.
Guerschon Yabusele, the dancing bear, will once again have the opportunity to take advantage of extra playing time without Joel Embiid or Paul George available. Yabusele has knocked down at least one three-pointer or more in five of his last six games. The Lakers allow an average of over 14 three-pointers per game when playing on the road.
Parlay Odds: +231
Milwaukee Bucks at Portland Trail Blazers
Leg 1: Under 230.5 Points (-110)
Leg 2: Deni Avdija 10+Points (-750)
Keeping in line with the previous parlay, we target another team that played yesterday and will be back on the floor this evening in the Milwaukee Bucks. Their opponents, the Portland Trail Blazers, have allowed the fewest amount of points over the last three games, surrendering an average of 98 points each contest.
Portland has covered the over 61.9% of the time when playing at home on the season. However, the Trail Blazers have not cleared a combined score of 230.5 in seven straight games. In the two games this season where Milwaukee played on the road on consecutive days the team averaged 101 points.
In the 11 games played in January, Deni Avdija has been sizzling hot, scoring 10+ points on 50% shooting from the field. The Portland forward is averaging just under six more minutes this month compared to his season average of 28.7. Out of the 11 contests, he has played at least 30 minutes in eight games. Avdija is averaging 17.9 points in January and has hit 20+ points on three occasions.
Giannis Antetokounmpo went absolutely ballistic on the Jazz last night, to the tune of 35 points, 18 boards and seven assists. However, in the two games this season when the Bucks played on consecutive nights on the road, Antetokounmpo only averaged 27 points, 11 rebounds and four assists. Portland has been playing a more hounding defense as of late, which could limit the Milwaukee superstar even further.
The points are so heavily baked into this combination, as well as the game in general. If Milwaukee is having difficulty scoring this evening as a team, Antetokounmpo will probably not exceed season his season averages of 31.5 points, 12.2 rebounds and 5.9 assists in this contest.
Parlay Odds: +242
