Best NBA Picks and Parlays Today

The first step is locating the new Parlay Builder tab on the OddsShopper home page, which is very simple to do. After that, the user can customize to their heart’s content. OddsShopper offers the parlay bets by state, sportsbooks, and a variety of parlays. This article will be featuring the Prop Party Parlay, which gives up to five player prop bets that will give you the best chance to win based on our Awesemo simulations. The prop party is the most popular betting combo within the Awesemo community and Alex “Awesemo” Baker — the world’s No. 1 daily fantasy player — uses these almost exclusively when he is looking for an edge. It is always a smart idea to bet each wager as a solo piece as a way to build the bankroll. Parlays by their nature are harder to hit, which is why the reward is so large. Sunday’s version of the Prop Party features four wagers as of 10 a.m. on the DraftKings Sportsbook, so be sure to check OddsShopper for any updates when building any NBA parlay.

Alex Caruso Over 1.5 Steals

Steals can be a tough category to wager on, but Alex Caruso had two steals in both Games 1 and 2. Milwaukee has the fifth-most turnovers per game in the playoffs this year, and Caruso averaged 1.7 steals per game in the regular season. What is very noticeable is the ROI for this wager is +118, and yet the expected win rate from OddsShopper is 60% and Caruso is on the court for 35 minutes or more when the games have stayed close. The loss of Lonzo Ball for the Bulls makes the defense of Caruso even more important, and the loss of Khris Middleton for the Bucks pushes more minutes on players who aren’t quite as good. The ROI is well with chasing in this spot since the Bulls are only 4.5-point underdogs.

Klay Thompson Over 22.5 Points

If there has been one trend in this series, it has been the Nuggets simply do not have an answer for the shot-making prowess of the Warriors, and that includes Klay Thompson. He’s averaged 22 points per game in this series, and that has come in large part due to shooting 14-for-31 from 3 and the Nuggets defense for the Nuggets struggling to stop much of anything. Thompson has logged 29, 36, and 37 minutes, and Golden State has to smell blood in the water. This is a veteran team that could get a long rest if they win this game, and Thompson has scored 6 points per game at an effective field goal rate of 64.3% shooting off a screen. Those 6 points lead all players in the playoffs, and Stephen Curry could still be limited to around 30 minutes today. OddsShopper has an expected win rate of 51% for Thompson, and it could be the end of Denver’s season today in part because of his scoring.

Trae Young Over 27.5 Points

The expected win rate for Trae Young is once again over 50% (54%) from OddsShopper, and it may look silly after Young has scored 25 and 24 points in the past two games. What was encouraging from Game 3 was Young put together a 14-point fourth quarter in a comeback effort for the Atlanta Hawks, and he got to the free-throw line 12 times. That was more than the first two games combined, and he has still yet to shoot well from 3 (4-for-23 through three games). The Miami Heat have multiple players questionable, and a key element is Kyle Lowry. Lowry seems to be highly questionable for Game 4 today and may miss it entirely. While they have deployed P.J. Tucker on Young a lot in the series, losing Lowry still doesn’t help the defense on the perimeter. The Hawks are only 1.5-point underdogs, and that would point toward Young having a big game today for Atlanta.

Chris Paul Over 12.5 Assists

This is a large number, but Chris Paul played 40 minutes for the Phoenix Suns in Game 3 with no Devin Booker and racked up 14 assists on 21 potential chances. Paul made 60 passes through the game and was in control basically the entire way when he was on the floor, and he averaged 10.9 assists per game during the regular season. Paul has averaged over 112 assists per game in the three games against the New Orleans Pelicans.

The ROI on this wager is +115, and these four picks for the NBA parlay would net a return of +1670 from the Awesemo Parlay Calculator. Even though the Suns have lost a prolific scorer in Booker, Paul can still pass the ball like few others in the league, and getting this level of ROI is too appealing to not chase.
