Best NBA Parlay: Eytan’s Picks | DraftKings Sportsbook
Leg 1: Heat-Bucks
With Giannis Antetokounmpo out tonight, the line has already been adjusted, and the Bucks only have to lay 1.5 points. While Miami is dealing with some injuries, whether or not Kyle Lowry plays is inconsequential. Milwaukee has shown they can play well without Giannis, with guys like Brook Lopez stepping up to fill the scoring and rebounding void. Even though Khris Middleton is always iffy, we like the Bucks in this game by a little bit. Miami needs to be complete in order for them to mow down a Giannis-less Bucks team. Overall, taking the Milwaukee Bucks at -1.5 is a smart play for this parlay.
Best NBA Parlay Bet: Bucks -1.5 (-110) on DraftKings
Leg 2: Nets-Bulls
I do not want to mess around with a team like Chicago, who is struggling mightily and has lost six straight games. The Nets have played well amidst all the chaos and have a talented roster with players like Spencer Dinwiddie and Mikal Bridges. I don’t think this is a spot for the Nets to be a dog. Even though they’re only getting 2 points, winning the game is more important than the spread. Brooklyn has had time to formulate their identity, and I think they’ll take advantage of this opportunity to do so. Meanwhile, the Bulls seem to be in a state of despair, with players like DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine expressing their frustration with the team’s losing streak. At +105, the Nets moneyline is an excellent play for this parlay.

Leg 3: Kings-Clippers
While Russell Westbrook leaving dysfunctional situations has been a topic of discussion, that is not the focus here. The Clippers are in a great position to narrow the gap with Sacramento and Memphis, especially after the Grizzlies’ loss last night. With their main guys and the ability to put together what they thought this team was going to be from the start, the Clippers have a vehicle for success. Additionally, no Ivica Zubac tonight does not pose a significant defensive problem for the Clippers, especially against a team like Sacramento. The Kings are coming off the first leg of a back-to-back and are on the road, which means they will need a little more than they have to win tonight. It’s going to be a Clippers victory but a Clippers victory defensively, and the under 236 will hit, completing the parlay.
Best NBA Parlay Bet: Under 236 (-110) on DraftKings
