What better way to start off the weekend in the NBA than with a mega parlay? There’s a total of 6 games to choose from and I’ve picked out my 3 favorite bets from tonight’s action.

Detailed predictions on the spread and total for all 6 tonight’s game will be available on the website, but without wasting any more time let’s get into it.

Knicks ML (+240)

Over 233 total points – Bucks vs Hornets (-110)

Pacers ML (+138)

Parlay odds: +1444

New York Knicks ML (+240)

The Knicks just beat the Celtics at home the other day thanks to a three-pointer from RJ Barrett at the buzzer. They trailed by as many as 25 points in that game, but showed character and came back to completely turn around that game. Evan Fournier exploded for a career-high 41 points, I’m hoping he can produce another solid game tonight. The Knicks have beaten their last 13 of 15 opponents when playing on Saturday and they are 5-2 SU in their last 7, plus they’ve covered in 4 of 6 vs tonight’s opponent. This team is more than good enough to cause an upset against a Celtics squad that’s only 5-15 ATS in his last 20 games vs Atlantic Division opponents.

Over 233 total points – Milwaukee Bucks vs Charlotte Hornets (-110)

Both teams love going over the total. For the Bucks that bet has landed in 5 of their last 7 games and in 4 of 5 vs Southeast Division opponents. The Hornets are 2nd in the NBA in points scored per game averaging 115.5 a night and are coming off a 140 point effort vs Detroit. Over their last 3 games they are averaging 120 per game and the total has gone over in 6 of 8 vs East teams, plus in 9 of 10 against Central Division opponents. In the 3 most recent meetings these two are averaging 238.6 points per game and the total has gone over twice. The earlier meeting this season finished 127-125 in favor of the Bucks, with them playing a tough game at Brooklyn last night I think their defense will take a step back here and we’ll see a similar score in tonight’s game.

In-depth analysis of Milwaukee Bucks vs Charlotte Hornets will be up on our website soon.

Indiana Pacers ML (+138)

To cap off the mega parlay we have the Indiana Pacers beating the Utah Jazz. If both teams were at full strength then this match-up would not be even close. The Jazz are currently decimated with injuries. They will be without Rudy Gobert and Joe Ingles who are in quarantine, Bojan Bogdanovic is questionable with a finger injury, Donovan Mitchell has a back problem, Mike Conley’s knee is acting up and Rudy Gay is questionable with a heel injury. None of those players played last night and they got beat by 14 points at Toronto. The injury situation is still unclear, but if they decide to rest them again here then Indiana definitely has a chance. Pacers are 6-4 SU in the last 10 meetings and have covered the spread in 7 of those games. They have also beaten the Jazz in 7 of 10 at home, plus vs West teams they are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 games.
