The NBA has nine games tonight, which is a perfect opportunity to use Awesemo OddsShopper to build some of the best NBA parlay picks today. Using this fantastic site and all of its NBA betting tips can help place smart wagers in an easy-to-use fashion and maximize the ROI on the wagers. It is truly betting made simple since you can find the best bet in 30 seconds or less.

Longshot NBA Parlay Picks & Player Props Tonight

The first step is finding the brand new Parlay Builder for OddsShopper. It is located on the top banner and is just one click away. This tool is a game changer because the Awesemo data scientists have built the parlay already. The user has the choice of what type of parlay they prefer to chase, and the state is customizable along with the sportsbook. Though it is rare, underdogs eventually have their day, and when they do, the payouts are oh so nice. Here are our best bets for underdogs if you like to fade the favs and cheer for the upset at high odds. As a reminder, betting the props individually is always a smart way to build your bankroll. An underdog parlay is not exactly the most stable return if it is always being bet just as a parlay. Let us find out what the best-projected bets are for Tuesday and build some NBA parlay picks.

Karl-Anthony Towns Over 8.5 Rebounds

The ROI is wrong at +106 considering Karl-Anthony Towns averages 9.2 rebounds per game this year and he has 16.3 rebounding chances per game. Towns has an expected win rate of 73% tonight and the Minnesota Timberwolves take on the Portland Trail Blazers a game that features the second-highest total of the night and the Trail Blazers are 23rd in rebounding this year. They do rate well in the paint, as they allow the eighth-fewest rebounds in the paint per game but owns has a 56.1% conversion rate. Anytime a wager is under a player’s average and at plus money with an expected win rate over 70%, that is a strong way to kick off the NBA parlay.

Jakob Poeltl Over 2.5 Assists

The game with the highest total of the night is the San Antonio Spurs facing the Houston Rockets, approaching 235 points. Jakob Poeltl has an incredible matchup in the paint as the Rockets are in the bottom five in rebounds and points allowed in the paint this season and they continue to play at the fastest pace in the league. Poeltl is averaging 2.7 assists per game, and he is inside the top 10 on paint touches on the year. Among the 20 players that have the most paint touches per game this year, Poeltl is second behind only Domantas Sabonis of the Indiana Pacers in passes per game at 2.8. With the pace and lack of defense on the Houston side (30th in defensive rating), Poeltl features a 64% win rate from OddsShopper.

Nicolas Batum Over 4.5 Rebounds

Generally, Nicolas Batum is not the primary source of value in any type of wager but tonight is an exception as the Los Angeles Clippers face the Washington Wizards. With Paul George still missing for the foreseeable future for the Clippers, Batum has averaged 26 minutes per game but has also logged as many as 30 and 36 minutes in two of the past three contests. He is averaging 4.7 rebounds per game this year and the Wizards sit just 19th in rebounding overall. Most of Batum’s rebounds (3.5) come within 10 feet of the basket this year and Washington does not improve much in the paint at just 15th. OddsShopper gives Batum an expected win rate of 57% and his +115 ROI is the second largest of the parlay.

Furkan Korkmaz Over 3.5 Assists

The largest potential return is Furkan Korkmaz at +140, and that is a long shot, but he also has a 70% expected win rate from OddsShopper. The Philadelphia 76ers are going to be missing Seth Curry and Shake Milton tonight, putting the onus on Tyrese Maxey to handle the ball and of course Joel Embiid with his 41.4% usage rate. However, Korkmaz has the most minutes on the court this year without Curry and Milton at 322 minutes and he has a 19.1% assist rate. In these past two games without those players, Korkmaz has averaged 39 passes made with five potential assists. Now add in the New Orleans Pelicans played last night and already have a bottom 10 defensive rating and Korkmaz has a very strong chance to hit four assists or higher. This four-leg parlay has an outstanding return of +2025 according to the Awesemo Parlay Calculator which would be quite the bankroll builder.
