I gave you guys a dud yesterday, and I feel sick about it. Those NBA parlay picks graded out very well in the model, but, sometimes all the variance goes against you in one fell swoop. Today, we’re punching back with a 3-leg +403 parlay that includes picks for Lakers-Mavericks, Suns-Warriors and a player prop from Celtics-Cavs. Let’s get to the NBA parlay picks today.
NBA Parlay Picks Today: +403 Parlay Tuesday
Lakers Moneyline vs. Mavericks (NBA Player Prop)
The Lakers are coming off a dominant run through the NBA In-Season Tournament en route to a championship — and yes, they 100% should hang a banner for it. If you wanna fight about that, @ me on Twitter.
LeBron & Co. are coming off a two-day rest period, and face the Mavericks on the back end of a back-to-back.
Looking at the Mavs, we know they’re going to be without Kyrie Irving, Maxi Kleber and Josh Green, and could also be without Grant Williams and Tim Hardaway Jr. Not only that, but Luka Doncic played 41 minutes last night, and did come up wincing in pain early in that game after taking a hard fall.
So, with the Mavericks being extremely dinged up with players missing, and possibly having Luka taking it a bit easier on a back-to-back after tweaking his back, this feels like a spot we can attack the moneyline for the Lakers.
LeBron James and Anthony Davis are listed as questionable, but I doubt either of them miss this game after having two consecutive days off.
Fire up the Lakers moneyline for Leg 1 of our NBA parlay today.
Suns Moneyline vs. Warriors (NBA Player Prop)
Today is the day. All of the shiny toys the Phoenix Suns possess will be unveiled tonight. Allegedly.
According to reports, Bradley Beal should be back tonight in some capacity, which will be the first time he’s played alongside both Kevin Durant and Devin Booker.
The Suns haven’t played since Friday, so it seems odd for Durant to be ruled out after having four days of rest. If you’re into narratives, Phoenix finally being able to roll out its Big 3 against the Golden State Warriors … that feels like a good one.
Phoenix has beaten Steph Curry and the Warriors twice already this season. Yes, that was without Draymond Green in either game, but he hasn’t been much of a help for Golden State this season.
The Warriors are 10-12 and are nearing the bottom third of the league in Net Rating. I’m gonna roll with the Suns in this matchup. Forget the points. Let’s take the moneyline.
Jrue Holiday 6+ Rebounds (NBA Player Prop)
When I was firing up the OddsShopper Prop Tool this morning, this Jrue Holiday rebounding prop was popping immediately.
At FanDuel, we’re firing up the 6+ rebounds mark to get a touch better odds than the over 5.5 (which is the same thing … lol sportsbooks).
The expert projections and simulations have this Holiday rebounding prop coming through for us almost 60% of the time, which, if you’ve followed along AT ALL by now, you know is a very high number.
Holiday is averaging 7 rebounds per game this season, and has cashed the 6+ rebound prop in nine of his last 10 games. #Trends
When in doubt, trust the data; trust the tools; trust the projections. Let’s get this bag tonight.
