We’ve got a nice NBA Wednesday slate this week, so we might as well go for a big payday. That’s right, we’re back with another NBA mega parlay, this time a four-teamer with a payout north of 20/1. We’re going with three money lines and one favorite on the spread here.

We’re going big and bold, so let’s not waste any more time. We’re diving in, but don’t forget to check out our picks for the side and total on every NBA game.

Boston Celtics ML (+190)

Dallas Mavericks ML (-105)

Toronto Raptors -3.5 (-110)

Memphis Grizzlies ML (+100)

Parlay odds: +2049

This parlay gives very nice odds, and will be in great shape if Boston can pull of the upset against Philly. These odds are available with DraftKings. Let’s break down each of the four legs one by one.

Boston Celtics ML (+190)

Sure Jayson Tatum won’t be playing here, but I think oddsmakers are overreacting a bit to his absence. There’s bad blood between these teams, and the Celtics know that Philly will be bringing their best after they swept them in the playoffs. As such, you don’t have to worry about them getting up for this game. Joel Embiid looks like he’ll return here but he hasn’t played in a little while, so I don’t think we’ll see a full dose of minutes from him. The 76ers are just 2-4 in their last six games, with three of those four losses coming by at least 12 points. The two wins in that span both came against very shorthanded Heat teams that were playing without Jimmy Butler.

Dallas Mavericks ML (-105)

I expect the Mavericks to bounce back from three straight losses here. Two of the losses were road games against the Raptors and Bucks, and right before that Dallas had won four in a row, so I’m not too concerned. Not only is Indiana now without Victor Oladipo, they’ll also be without Myles Turner as he deals with an injury. Turner is crucial to what they do on both sides of the floor, and the importance of his absence can’t be overstated. It’s not a coincidence that in their first game without him on Sunday, they lost by 33 to the Clippers. Without Turner in the lineup, I don’t think they have any hope of slowing down Kristaps Porzingis.

Toronto Raptors -3.5 (-110)

The Raptors have clearly snapped out of their early season funk, as they’ve now won three straight games after shockingly starting off at 2-8. They just crushed the Mavericks by 23 points, and now that they’ve got momentum I don’t think they’ll ever look back. They were clearly way underachieving their talent, and it was only a matter of time before they got it together. Their last two losses were both by a single point, so they very easily could be on a five-game winning streak right now. The Heat will be shorthanded once again here, as Jimmy Butler and Avery Bradley have both been ruled out with Tyler Herro being questionable. I don’t think this one will be close.

Memphis Grizzlies ML (+100)

The Grizzlies won’t have Jonas Valanciunas for this one, but I don’t think it will hinder them too much now that Ja Morant is back in the lineup. Memphis is scorching hot right now, as they’re winners of five straight. That includes impressive wins over the Nets, 76ers, and most recently the Suns. They beat the Suns and Deandre Ayton without Valanciunas, so I don’t think they’ll have much issue down low against Portland, especially with Blazers Jusuf Nurkic sidelined due to injury. Portland is missing Nurkic sorely, as evidenced by the 21-point beatdown they just suffered at the hands of San Antonio. Memphis should be the favorite here.
