We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Monday, including action from college basketball, the NBA, and NHL.
One pick is taken from each sport with a second pick from the NBA. A winning ticket would give us a nice payout with odds of +1123 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Let’s break down each of these plays.
NBA: Indiana Pacers +1 (-115) vs Orlando Magic, 7:10 pm ET
The Magic are only 4-13 SU in their last 17 games at home, so they’ll need everyone they can get in order to beat this Pacers squad. The Magic have won just once in their last 12 home games against the Pacers and they are only 4-9 against the spread in their last 13 games played in February. It’s been a disappointing season for both teams, but with a 8-19 ATS home record, I just cannot trust the Magic. Indiana has been the better team in head-to-head meetings, and if they can beat the Celtics by 21 they should have enough to win against the worst team in the East. Take the road squad.

NHL: Vancouver Canucks vs New Jersey Devils – Over 6 goals (-115), 7:30 pm ET
The Canucks have now had 5 games in a row go over and New Jersey has had 3 straight overs. The Devils’ last 10 games have averaged 8 goals per game and the Canucks’ have averaged just above 6.5. Both teams are playing well on offense lately without impressing on defense. This game should see the trends continue and produce a high total.

NBA: Toronto Raptors -4 (-110) vs Brooklyn Nets, 7:40 pm ET
The win at Milwaukee was big for the Nets, however they are back to square one with this being a home game and Kyrie Irving being unable to play. They are by far the worst team in the NBA when it comes to covering the spread at home with a 6-22-1 ATS record. Against the Raptors at home they’ve covered just once in the last 7 meetings.
The Raptors are facing a Brooklyn Nets team that has beaten them twice this season, however with the game being played in Brooklyn the Nets will be without their 3 stars again, so this is Toronto’s chance. In the last 7 meetings the Raptors have covered the spread 5 times, and over the last 20 games they have 15 wins against the Nets. All in all, the Raptors should win fairly easily. They’ve gone 17-12-1 ATS on the road this season.

College basketball: Baylor Bears ML (-120) vs Texas Longhorns, 9:00 pm ET
The Bears will head into Austin as they look to continue their dominance over the Longhorns after winning 9 of the last 10 meetings, including an 80-63 drubbing 2 weeks ago. In what amounts to a pick ’em, I am recommending Baylor. This game has the potential to be a letdown spot for the Bears, however there is too much inconsistency in the Texas offense. Baylor has won the last 5 meetings, including the last 2 in Austin. Take the Bears.
