We are breaking down two contests across The Association this evening. Things kick off in Chicago, where the Bulls take on the Toronto Raptors at 8:10 p.m. ET. Subsequently, we head down to Memphis, where the Grizzlies and Warriors battle it out in the Western Conference as the playoffs are on the horizon. Without any further preamble, let's dive right into our same-game parlay (SGP) picks for these contests.
Tuesday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Toronto Raptors at Chicago Bulls
- Leg 1: Bulls Moneyline (-205)
- Leg 2: Under 236.5 Points (-115)
- Leg 3: Bulls Alt Team Total Under 119.5 Points (+115)
While this may be a back-to-back situation for the Bulls, they appear to be the better option of the two teams this evening. Chicago is 4-1 in their last five matchups against the Raptors. The Bulls own a 22-point differential in those five contests.
Toronto has won four games in a row despite some questionable lineup changes in the fourth quarter of close games. However, those victories were against the Wizards, Nets, Hornets and Sixers - some of the lowest win totals across the NBA this season.
Chicago has picked up wins in six of their last 10 games. The Bulls were dismantled by Oklahoma City last night, which caused limited playing time for the starters. We expect them to be on the floor for much longer tonight.
These two teams have combined for an average of only 233 points over their last 10 games. Chicago put up 403 points over three contests, which seriously inflates these numbers.
Toronto has been a lockdown defense over the last 10 games, positioning themselves second in defensive rating, only behind the Thunder. The Raptors are conceding 109.3 points in their previous 10 contests, on 43% shooting from the field and 33% from beyond the arc.
The Bulls have not scored over 119 points in their last three contests. The Raptors have only allowed 120+ points in two of their last 10 games. When playing on consecutive nights, Chicago is only averaging 114.6 points.
Parlay Odds: +305
Golden State Warriors at Memphis Grizzlies
- Leg 1: Warriors Moneyline (-192)
- Leg 2: Grizzlies Alt Team Total Under 119.5 Points (-175)
- Leg 3: Warriors Race to 20 Points – First Quarter (-140)
- Leg 4: Draymond Green Under 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (-175)
The NBA is certainly not the pillar of normalcy by any means. Having said that, firing your coach on the verge of the playoffs, when the team has a winning record, is just a new level of insanity. Whatever the reasoning, Memphis felt this was the best course of action to take.
After losing to Boston last night, things do not get any easier for the Grizzlies as the Warriors head into town, having won 11 of their previous 15 games. Golden State has recorded wins in six of its last 10 road games.
The Warriors are 14-8 on the season when playing on the road as favorites. Golden State also wins 60% of the time when they have the rest advantage. Memphis is 2-4 this season when playing at home as an underdog.
The Grizzlies are averaging 116.4 points over the last five games, including a 140-point performance against the Jazz. If you extract that total, the average drops to 110.5 over four contests. Memphis has exceeded 119.5 points in only two of its previous six games.
Golden State ranks 10th in the league in fewest allowed points over the last five games, surrendering only 110.2 points per game. The Warriors have conceded more than 119.5 points in only two of their last 10 games, including five straight.
Draymond Green has only knocked down more than 1.5 three-pointers in five of his last 15 games, and has not done so in consecutive contests since January. Green averaged 1.2 three-pointers in March. He has connected on two or more baskets from beyond the arc in just six of his last 26 contests.
Parlay Odds: +340
Enjoy the games tonight and good luck with your parlays.
