There are 11 games on the NBA slate tonight, meaning there are plenty for us to pick from for this parlay. The Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks all find themselves on 3-game winning streaks right now. That is enough to put them tied for second for the current longest streak in the league. With all of those teams in action on Friday, they will be keen to take sole ownership of that spot.
Head over to our NBA predictions for picks on the spread and total for every game on the board, but for now let’s jump into our NBA mega parlay.
Toronto Raptors -5.5 alternate spread (+126)
Chicago Bulls ML (+175)
Los Angeles Clippers ML (+144)
Parlay odds (+1416)
Toronto Raptors -5.5 alternate spread over New York Knicks (+126)
The Raptors ended the Knicks’ 8-game winning streak in December, earning a 113-106 success on the road. Tonight they will get a chance to get they second win against them when the teams play in Toronto. The visitors will be without RJ Barrett tonight, which will be massive miss for the team. He scored 30 points when the sides last faced off. His absence leaves a huge scoring burden on Julius Randle. Only Otto Porter Jr. remains out for the home team. They will also have Gary Trent Jr. in the lineup after he missed the first meeting. Considering the guard is averaging 29.7 points per game over the last week, he should provide a scoring punch that is tough for the Knicks to equal. With Pascal Siakam dropping a career high 52 points in their last meeting, the Knicks could struggle matching their offensive output on the road.

Chicago Bulls ML over Philadelphia 76ers (+175)
The Bulls have been bouncing back of late, winning 6 of the last 10 games overall. They will get a chance to improve on that tonight as they take on a Philadelphia 76ers side that is without Joel Embiid. The center is averaging 33.5 points per game this season and his absence will be tough for the hosts to replace. The Bulls are 4th in offensive rating over the last 10 games and should be able to overpower the 76ers with their scoring here. Without Embiid defending the paint, DeMar DeRozan and company should be able to have plenty of success down low — especially if P.J. Tucker slots in at center. Expect another end to a winning streak here.

Los Angeles Clippers ML over Minnesota Timberwolves (+144)
There seems to be turmoil in the Timberwolves’ camp, with the team currently ranking 11th in the Western Conference. It is a great chance for the Clippers to take advantage. While the Clippers played last night, they never got out of the gates and got blown out by the Denver Nuggets. With no starter appearing in the second half of the game, they should be well prepared and rested for their second game of this back-to-back. There is even a chance that Kawhi Leonard takes to the floor, having only logged 18 minutes yesterday. The Timberwolves are 19th in defensive rating this season. With the Clippers having great wing defenders that could slow down Anthony Edwards, they will have a good chance to outscore their opponents.
