Best NBA Picks & Parlays for Rockets vs. Spurs Tonight | 1/25/22

Same-game parlays are one of the most exciting new forms of betting on sports. Not only are the payouts potentially massive, but they can also be +EV. Since all of the wagers take place in the same contest, it allows you to craft a narrative that can pay off royally if it hits. Same-game parlays become even better with the help of OddsShopper. It allows you to view all of the different wagers available for each game compared to the Awesemo NBA Projections. The wider the gap between the line and the projection, the more +EV the wager. This allows you to find the best NBA betting picks easily. Let’s dive into some of the best NBA picks and parlays for Tuesday, Jan. 25.

Same Game NBA Picks and Parlays: Rockets vs. Spurs

The first step is finding which sport you are going to wager on, so the banner at the top of the screen has the sports separated. Once you are on the NBA page, it is super simple to customize what you are looking for as far as teams and players on the left-hand side of the page.

Now, if you miss one of the odds highlighted in the article because it changed, do not worry. The lines do not always stay the same as they are updated every two minutes. There will be examples of when you can still wager based on the Awesemo projections. It is also easy to sort the props by what style you want to bet them, meaning that you can choose the highest ROI or the highest expected win rate.

Generally, the best approach is a mix of the highest ROI and expected win rate, and this process should take under 30 seconds to filter what you are looking for. The highlighted wagers in the article can also be bet individually, so if the parlay misses by one leg, it is not a total loss.


The Latest Sports Betting Content from Stokastic Odds


Kevin Porter Jr. Under 15.5 Points and Under 6.5 Assists

Porter has played well recently for the Rockets, averaging 17.8 points and 7.8 assists over his past four games. However, that has caused his props to become a bit inflated. Porter has averaged just 13.1 points and 5.9 assists per game this season, both of which are well below his season averages.

He will also draw one of the toughest possible matchups for a point guard against Dejounte Murray. Murray has taken a step forward with his offensive game this season, but he was already one of the best defensive point guards in basketball. He ranked sixth at the position in ESPN’s Defensive Real Plus/Minus last year, and the Spurs have allowed 1.5 fewer points per 100 possessions with Murray on the floor. Asking Porter to hit the under on his season averages in this spot is reasonable, and both unders have an expected win rate of at least 65% on OddsShopper.

Jakob Poeltl Over 2.5 Assists and Over 14.5 Points

The Spurs are set for a massive performance Tuesday on offense. The Rockets rank first in pace and dead last in defensive efficiency, which is a perfect combination for scoring points.
Poeltl should be able to do some damage. He has seen a nice spike in playing time recently, logging 39 and 35.7 minutes in his past two games. Poeltl has averaged 15.8 points and 3.4 assists per 36 minutes this season, so he can hit the over on both of these props if he plays a similar workload. Keita Bates-Diop has been ruled out for this contest, so that could help solidify Poeltl’s minute count.

Dejounte Murray Over 9.5 Assists

Murray is capable of doing everything on a basketball court, but distributing may be his best skill. He has been racking up assists recently, averaging 9.6 assists over his past 11 games. That includes handing out at least 10 assists in three straight games, and those were in significantly tougher matchups. Murray should get to double-digit assists against the Rockets and possibly recording another triple-double.
