The NBA isn’t looking to compete with the NFL Super Bowl on Sunday. Therefore, there are 11 games on the NBA slate tonight.
There’s action throughout the day starting at 3:00 pm ET!
After looking through the slate, I’ve found my favorite games for same game parlays. Let’s cash at least one before the Super Bowl for some added bankroll.
Saturday’s Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Toronto Raptors
- Leg 1: Jakob Poeltl Over 11.5 Points (-125)
- Leg 2: Max Strus Over 3.5 Rebounds (-146)
- Leg 3: Donovan Mitchell Over 3.5 Threes (-113)
Jakob Poeltl has only added 11 points per game this season. However, he’s shooting above 69% from the season and has added volume over the last few games. He’s averaged only seven shot attempts per game this season. However, in the previous four games, Poeltl has shot more than seven field goal attempts in three of those four.
With his field goal percentage still super high, the more volume, the better. He’s getting really good looks around the rim and usually finishes strong. Tonight, he’ll go up against a Cleveland defense that still ranks 24th in points allowed to centers this season. Poeltl has hit this line in four consecutive games.
On the other hand, Max Strus has averaged 5.1 rebounds per game. However, his line is at just 3.5 tonight. Strus has nailed at least four rebounds in 74% of games. However, he’s hit this line in 85% of his last 20 games. Strus is also facing a Raptors team that is 28th in rebounds allowed to shooting guards. Finally, Strus has added at least four rebounds in three straight games.
I’m also banking on Donovan Mitchell to have a big game. Mitchell has nailed at least four threes in four straight games. He’s hit this line in 65% of his last 20 games and will take on a Toronto defense that is still below average against shooting guards from downtown.
Mitchell has attempted at least nine threes in nine straight games. The volume should continue against Toronto.
Parlay Odds: +417
Phoenix Suns vs. Golden State Warriors
- Leg 1: Draymond Green Over 7.5 Points (-104)
- Leg 2: Bradley Beal Over 4.5 Assists (-158)
- Leg 3: Kevin Durant Over 6.5 Rebounds (+110)
Draymond Green has scored at least eight points in 64% of games this season. He’s also hit this line in 65% of his last 20 and is averaging 8.9 points per game this season.
Green has attempted about seven shots per game in February but hasn’t made a foul shot in the entire month. Typically, per his averages, he’ll find the foul line at least once a game. He’s also shooting nearly 49% from the field.
But lately, he’s giving the Warriors good minutes. Golden State has won five of their last six games, including Thursday’s win over Indiana, where he went 4-for-8 from the field to score eight points. We’ll take that stat line tonight.
Meanwhile, Bradley Beal of the Suns has added at least five assists in eight of his last ten games. He’s playing more than 36 minutes a night and has some games with seven or more assists. We’re just asking for five out of Beal in this one. The Warriors are 19th in assists allowed to shooting guards.
Let’s finish the parlay with Kevin Durant’s rebounds. Durant has averaged 6.5 rebounds per game this season. However, he’s facing a Warriors team that is dead last in rebounds allowed to power forwards. Durant has hit this line in six of his last ten games and has been consistent on the glass in recent matchups against the Warriors.
