We have a solid slate in the NBA today, with a handful of interesting games. What better way to celebrate than by going for a big payday on Monday? That’s right; we’re back with another mega parlay, NBA edition.
I have hit a few of these recently, so hopefully we can keep it going. 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.
Let’s break down each of the legs one by one.
Call me crazy, but to start off this mega parlay we have the Thunder. New York being this large of a favorite right now against just about anybody doesn’t sit right with me. The Knicks just 2-8 in their last 10, and in their most recent game they lost to a depleted Portland team that has blown up its entire roster. RJ Barrett is going to miss this one for the Knicks with a sprained ankle, and that’s a massive loss.
OKC has shown a ton of fight, and they just very nearly beat the Bulls on the road in their last game. Lu Dort had 31 in that one, and he’s really stepped up in the absence of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. So has rookie Josh Giddey, who just had another triple-double. The Knicks are an absolute mess, and being able to get 4/1 while fading them is too good to pass up.
To wrap up this mega parlay and hopefully bring us home, we have the Pelicans. New Orleans was a somewhat surprising buyer at the deadline, adding CJ McCollum from Portland. They Pelicans have lost their last two games to San Antonio and Miami, but right before that had won four in a row. McCollum is coming off a monster game in which he had 36/11/5–a great sign. It was his highest-scoring output of the season, and it looks like he’s embracing the sudden change in scenery.
The Pels have also been a much better team at home this season. Toronto had been on a roll but it just saw momentum snapped with a tough loss to the Nuggets its last time out. New Orleans got off to a terrible start, but it has quietly been an above-.500 team over the last couple of months.
