Underdog NBA Parlay Picks Tonight: Best New Year’s Eve Longshot Bets & Player Props Friday 12/31

There are seven games for the NBA tonight, which is a perfect opportunity to use Awesemo OddsShopper to build some of the best NBA parlay picks today. Using this fantastic site 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 New Year’s Eve NBA Parlay Picks & Player Props

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.

Trae Young Over 4.5 Rebounds

Trae Young is not typically a target for rebounds, as he only averages 3.9 per game. The difference tonight when the Atlanta Hawks take on the Cleveland Cavaliers is both teams are missing vital players from their rotation. Young played 33 minutes in the last game, and it was not a particularly close contest. In the game before that he played 40, and Cleveland is 14th in rebounding on the season. That was with Jarrett Allen, who is still out. The Hawks are without multiple rotation players, and if Young plays 35 minutes or more, that explains his expected win rate of 69% from OddsShopper.

Rudy Gobert Under 1.5 Assists

The Utah Jazz are hosting the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight, and Rudy Gobert is in a fantastic spot. The Timberwolves are in the bottom 10 in points and rebounds allowed in the paint, which is perfect for Gobert. He is 11th in paint touches and second in points scored in the paint, meaning he should not be passing all that much. While the Jazz are without guard Mike Conley tonight, Gobert still only has a 7.5% assist rate on the season, and he is averaging just 1.1 assists per game. OddsShopper has an expected win rate of 66% on this wager, and the +105 return helps build the Dog Days parlay.

Damian Lillard Under 7.5 Assists

The game between the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers has the highest total of the slate, but that does not mean Damian Lillard is a lock to go over his line for assists. In fact, the Lakers playing at the fastest pace in the league just gives him more chances to score himself. OddsShopper has an expected win rate of 66%, and Portland is still without C.J. McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic. The last time Nurkic played was Dec. 21, and since then Lillard is only averaging 14.3 potential assists. The Trail Blazers would have to shoot very well from the floor for Lillard to hit eight assists or more.

Serge Ibaka Under 7.5 Rebounds

Rounding out the parlay is Serge Ibaka, who has an expected win rate of 65% from OddsShopper, and the Awesemo Parlay Calculator gives the parlay a return of +1932. The Los Angeles Clippers will be without Ivica Zubac and Isaiah Hartenstein tonight, so Ibaka will likely have to start tonight. However, he has been working his way back from an offseason back injury, and the minutes have been all over the board for him this year. He has played as much as 29 minutes in the past 10 games, but he is averaging under 15 minutes on the season through 16 games. He is also only averaging 3.7 rebounds per game, so the under makes a lot of sense at an underdog ROI.
