NBA Picks and Parlays Today: Player Props & Betting Picks

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. The parlay is built based on the top ROI bets based on Awesemo simulations and to exceed at least ten times your initial bet. As a reminder, betting the props individually is always a smart way to build your bankroll. A 10x parlay is not exactly the most stable return if it is always being bet just as a parlay. Let’s find out what the best-projected bets are for Thursday and build some NBA parlay picks. This particular parlay was listed at around 11:00 a.m. ET on Jan. 20. OddsShopper updates the parlay constantly, so this is a guideline, and all plays will be linked to build the particular parlay.

Josh Hart Under 13.5 Points

The New Orleans Pelicans are in Madison Square Garden tonight to face the New York Knicks, and the Pelicans are a relatively healthy squad. Josh Hart ranks fifth in usage rate (17%), and the main two players who will carry the scoring load are Jonas Valanciunas and Brandon Ingram. The Knicks have come up to 16th in defensive rating, and while that is just average, it is better than being the bottom-feeder they have been for a lot of the season. Both teams are in the bottom 10 in pace this season, and Hart only averages 13.1 points per game. OddsShopper gives an expected win rate of 60%, and it has the best ROI at -115 at Caesars sportsbook.

Jae Crowder Under 1.5 Assists

While the Phoenix Suns boast one of the best guard combos in the league with Chris Paul and Devin Booker, it is not exactly a surprise that Jae Crowder averages just 1.4 assists per game. Booker and Paul both have assist rates over 22%, and Paul is over 40%, leaving Crowder at just 8.6% even when Deandre Ayton is off the floor. Ayton will be out tonight, but that does not have a large effect on Crowder, and the matchup against the Dallas Mavericks does not move the needle in any significant way. Crowder makes roughly 30 passes per game, but 18.5 go to Paul, who has a much higher likelihood of passing again and taking Crowder out of the assist equation. Crowder is there as a catch-and-shoot player on offense, as almost all of his field-goal attempts come from that play type. This bet has an expected win rate of 66% from OddsShopper.

Kevon Looney Under 9.5 Rebounds

The nightcap for the three-leg parlay comes from the Golden State Warriors and Kevon Looney. His expected win rate is 77%% from OddsShopper, and the Awesemo Parlay Calculator gives a return of +418. That is not a 10x return, but with three games, it is difficult to meet that threshold with any wagers that would be a strong confidence play. Looney finds himself in an interesting matchup tonight because the Indiana Pacers are missing Myles Turner and it sounds like Domantas Sabonis will not play with a sprained ankle suffered last night in Los Angeles. While that gives Looney a clearer path the hit the glass, he is still generally maxing out at 25 minutes per game and averaging seven rebounds. Most of his work comes within six feet of the basket, averaging five rebounds per night, and Indiana ranks second in rebounds allowed in the paint. Even with their big men out of this game, Looney hitting 10 is a large ask, and he has the highest expected win rate of the three-leg parlay.
