NBA Same Game Parlay Picks & Predictions: Raptors vs. Heat (Monday)
The NBA has an eight-game slate scheduled for us tonight. So far, there have been a couple of surprises early on. The Utah Jazz is 0-3, and the Lakers are 0-3 to begin the year.
Maybe the Lakers aren’t as surprising. But it proves just how valuable depth is on an NBA team. The Lakers simply don’t have a bench capable of contributing, while the Jazz has another starting lineup coming off the bench of reliable and confident players.
Anyway, let’s get to what’s essential. I’ve got a couple of same-game parlays I’ll fire on tonight. And here’s a closer look at Raptors vs. Heat.
NBA Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions: Raptors vs. Heat
Toronto Raptors vs. Miami Heat
- Leg 1: Jimmy Butler Over 23.5 Points (-108)
- Leg 2: Bam Adebayo Over 16.5 Points (-108)
- Leg 3: OG Anunoby Over 5.5 Rebounds (-122)
The Miami Heat are already coming off a 112-109 win over the Raptors at home on Saturday. Now, these two teams will play another game in Miami.
The Heat won that game 112-109 and are now -3.5 in this game as a result.
Butler scored 24 points on 7-for-16 from the field. He played 35 minutes and knocked down a three-point shot in the win. On the other hand, the Heat will want to get Bam Adebayo more opportunities. He only took six shots in 36 minutes, scoring 10 points in that game.
The Raptors are allowing a 56.7% effective field goal percentage and have also allowed teams to get to the foul line at a high rate. That will help Butler and Adebayo earn more points in this game.
Meanwhile, Toronto has been terrific on the defensive glass. Part of that has been OG Anunoby, who brought down nine rebounds in 38 minutes against the Heat on Saturday. He should be able to earn close to nine rebounds again. With a line sitting at 5.5, I’ll take that for the final leg of the same-game parlay.
