One thing that is noticeable right away for the seven games of NBA action tonight is that five of them have a spread of 6 points or under. Blowouts can always happen, and they did last night in quite a few games, but it is always nice to see close spreads to start. The next aspect that pops off the page is the whopping 245-point total in the Charlotte Hornets – Minnesota Timberwolves game, so finding a route in that game could be plenty of fun.
That means it is time to use Awesemo OddsShopper to build some of the best NBA picks and parlays 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.

Longshot NBA Picks & Parlays, Player Prop Bets 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 parlays today.
Tyrese Maxey Under 3.5 Rebounds
The Philadelphia 76ers await the arrival of James Harden, who will be out until after the All-Star break, and they host the Boston Celtics in the first half of the TNT double-header tonight. Boston has won eight straight games, but Tyrese Maxey is not exactly hitting the glass, with only 3.6 rebounds per game. Part of the reason that the 76ers are 30th in rebounding is the fact that no player other than Joel Embiid does much in the rebounding department, and Boston is second in rebounding. They come down to 14th in rebounds allowed outside of the paint, but Maxey is only averaging 1.5 rebounds outside of 10 feet of the basket this season. He is under one rebound per game in every other zone, and OddsShopper has an expected win rate of 72%.
Jarrett Allen Under 10.5 Rebounds
Jarrett Allen may be the newest All-Star representative for the Cleveland Cavaliers after being named as a replacement on Monday, but that does not mean he is getting 11 rebounds or more tonight. OddsShopper has a 62% expected win rate for him tonight to stay under 11 rebounds, and the Atlanta Hawks have center Clint Capela on the other side of this matchup. Both of these players average over 18 rebound chances per game, and both have a conversion rate over 60%, so the matchup is tough. Capela just played 31 minutes for the Hawks in their last game for the first time in a while, and they will need him tonight, as Allen averages 32 minutes and 11.1 rebounds per game this season. Atlanta also holds the edge in rebounds allowed in the paint — they are fifth, while the Cavaliers rank 15th — so this should be enough to hold Allen just under his average for the season.

Miles Bridges Under 1.5 3-Pointers
The three-leg NBA parlay finishes with a +786 return according to the Awesemo Parlay Calculator, and this game promises fireworks. It might seem completely nuts to wager on an under in the Hornets – Timberwolves game, but Miles Bridges is shooting just 30.7% from a 3-point distance this season. The statistics would say that the sportsbooks maybe overreacted a bit to the total here. While both teams reside in the top five in pace this season and the total is the highest of the season at most sportsbooks, that does not make Bridges shoot the ball any better.
He is attempting 5.8 field goals from a 3-point distance per game, and in fairness, the Timberwolves allow a 43.3% frequency to opponents. That is the fourth highest in the league, but the opposition is also shooting only 34.9%, and that is 14th. There is a pretty large gap between the number of 3-point shots allowed and how many are being converted, in addition to Bridges just not being a sharpshooter. OddsShopper has an expected win rate of 75%, which is the highest of the three legs, and the ROI is the highest at +136. Even in this game environment, those numbers are too good to pass up for the parlay.
