New York Knicks -10 (-114) over Charlotte Hornets
We start the Parlay with the hottest team in the NBA right now – the Knicks entertain the Charlotte Hornets at Madison Square Garden. New York has won 9 games in a row after another tense finish as they beat the Boston Celtics 131-129 on the road after double OT. Immanuel Quickley was the hero with 38 points as he logged a whopping 55 minutes in what was the best game of his career.
Fatigue shouldn’t be a problem here, Jalen Brunson is expected back in the line-up, so he can take over a good portion of the offensive responsibilities. Knicks are 9-0 ATS/SU during this run, they’ve also covered the spread in 6 games in a row at MSG. On the other hand, the Hornets have nothing going for them at this time. LaMelo Ball’s injury was the final nail in the coffin of them potentially making a run for one of the remaining play-in tournament spots. They’ve dropped 3 games in a row, all 3 by double-digits. They’re 1-8 SU on the road in their last 9, while against Atlantic Division teams they’ve failed to cover in 9 straight. Knicks should dominate this one, so let’s roll with the in-form team.

Orlando Magic ML (+240) over Milwaukee Bucks
For a bit of an odds boost, I’ve decided to back the Orlando Magic to upset the Milwaukee Bucks at home. I know some people will be thrown off by the high odds, and I don’t blame you if you are one of those people, but hear me out. Despite being 13th in the East, the Magic haven’t been eliminated from making the play-in tournament. They’re just 3.5 games back from the Washington Wizards with 2 games left to be played between the two teams. They’ve been solid at home with 15 wins in 32 games, for a young team that’s still developing that’s a solid record. Golden State, Dallas, Boston (twice), and Denver have all fallen at the Amway Center this season. Sure, the Bucks have been on a solid run lately, but even they barely scraped out a win at Orlando in the last meeting that took place in this building. At +240 odds, it’s a tempting bet, so I say we try our luck with the upset here.
LA Lakers -2 (-112) over Memphis Grizzlies
And to wrap up the Parlay I have the Lakers covering at home against the shorthanded Grizzlies. put up a valiant effort in their last game against the Clippers scoring 129 points, but even that wasn’t enough as they fell on the road by 6-points. Ja Morant will once again not be in the line-up, as his off-court saga continues. In 10 games without Ja the Grizz are just 4-6 SU, the only reason why they beat the Lakers in the game played a week ago was his 39 points.
Following their Sunday win over Golden State, the Lakers are now in a 3-way tie for the 9th seed in the West. Winning tonight’s game would be another step in the right direction. LA has gone 5-2 SU/ATS in their last 7 games overall, they’ve dominated this match-up at crypto.com Arena winning 5 of the last 6 games. Reinforcements could also be on the way as D’Angelo Russell has been upgraded to questionable as he recovers from an ankle injury. AD dropped 39 on Sunday vs Golden State, I can’t think of another reason why he won’t go for another 30+ points game here. Roll with the Lakers at home.
