Long-time NBA fan, following the game closely for 21 years now. Joined the Pickswise writing staff for the 2020-21 season and have given out winning picks since. Hopefully we can make some money together! Oh, and I firmly believe Lebron James is not one of the two best basketball players of all time. Yeah, I said it.

Over the last 10 days I’ve Cashed 4 different Same Game Parlays:

+646 odds 76ers vs Cavaliers

+772 odds Bucks vs Warriors

+772 odds Grizzlies vs Lakers 

+863 odds Suns vs Mavericks SGP

For tonight, we’re looking to keep the good times rolling, so I’ve prepared an SGP bet for the Orlando Magic vs Phoenix Suns game. Tip-off is scheduled for 10:00 pm ET on NBA TV, continue reading below to see my picks.

Don’t forget to also visit our NBA predictions for picks on the side and total of all 5 Thursday games, but let’s jump into my bet now.

Paolo Banchero to score 25+ points (+270)

Deandre Ayton to score 25+ points (+270)

Parlay odds: +1184

Paolo Banchero to score 25+ points (+270)

The Magic’s young star Paolo Banchero has had it cooking over the last 8 games, with only 1 bad game during that stretch, when he had just 8 points against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has averaged 23.1 points in those 8 games, while clearing the 25-point mark 5 times. He dropped 26 in a losing effort at San Antonio in just 32 minutes played, the Rookie of the Year award is pretty much in the bag and with a big game tonight he can further distance himself from the rest of the field.

We’ve seen the Suns defense really struggling over their last 3 games, especially from 3-point land with opponents averaging 40.7% of makes against them. Banchero is at 1.8 threes made per game in his last 6 while shooting over 42%, so he should definitely make use of that. There is really no pressure on either Banchero or the Magic in tonight’s game, so hopefully he can impact the game in a positive way for his team.

Deandre Ayton to score 25+ points (+270)

Speaking of pressure, Deandre Ayton has been under a ton of it lately since the Suns traded for Kevin Durant. However, his numbers have been on the rise in the last 3 games without KD, and he has gone over 20 points twice in those games. He played just 25 minutes in the loss to Milwaukee due to foul trouble while trying to guard Giannis, finishing with 16 points despite that. He should have the edge over Wendell Carter Jr. and Mo Wagner in tonight’s game as neither of those centers are agile enough to stand in front of him.

Ayton has gone over 20 points in 2 of his last 4 games against Orlando, and he can make the most out of their recent struggles on the inside. Teams have averaged 54.7 points per game in the paint against Orlando in their last 3 outings, so expect a lot of drives towards the basket by Phoenix. With Ayton getting 19 shots in each of his last 2 games, I think he is likely to get 20+ in tonight’s game, which should help him reach the 25 points we’re looking for.
