We’ve got a big slate in the NBA today, with a whopping 10 games on the docket. And what better way to celebrate than by going for a big payday on Friday? That’s right; we’re back with another mega parlay, NBA edition. I just hit this mega parlay on Thursday at +918, now let’s make it two days in a row!

We’re going big and bold again, so let’s not waste any more time. But before we dive in, don’t forget to check out our free picks on the side and total for every NBA game today.

Minnesota Timberwolves ML (+450)

Portland Trail Blazers ML (+195)

Parlay odds: +1523

Let’s break down each of the legs one by one.

Minnesota Timberwolves ML (+450) over Utah Jazz

I’m fading Utah to start this mega parlay. The Jazz certainly haven’t looked unbeatable recently, and their home-court advantage hasn’t been nearly as strong this season. They already have six losses at home, more than they had all of last year. As such, getting better than 4/1 with the Timberwolves is too good to pass up — especially considering Minnesota is getting Anthony Edwards back here. Nobody has given them much credit, but the T-Wolves have actually been solid this year.

They just beat the Celtics in a game where they didn’t have Edwards or KAT. Edwards has developed into a legit star during his second season, and is averaging 22/6/4. In his last game before getting sidelined briefly, he made an absurd 10 three-pointers while dropping 38. Utah has faced an extremely soft schedule lately, and I think they could get caught sleeping here.

Portland Trail Blazers ML (+195) over Los Angles Lakers

To wrap this mega parlay up, we’ve got the Trail Blazers in the nightcap. The Lakers being this big of a favorite over just about anybody is laughable. Portland certainly hasn’t been having the season they were hoping for, but they aren’t a doormat either and they were also without Damian Lillard for a while. The good news for Trail Blazers fans is that Lillard is back, and he’s officially broken out of his shooting slump.

In eight December games, Lillard is averaging 31 points per game while shooting better than 38 percent from deep. The Lakers are a complete mess, and they’ve lost six of their past seven games. Their one win in that span came against the lowly Rockets, and it took a truly heroic performance from LeBron James to get a narrow win over Houston. Especially without Anthony Davis, this team just simply isn’t very good, and it’s time everybody accepted that.
