Same Game Parlay of the Night: Best NBA Picks & Parlays Tonight | 1/3/22

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 tonight.

Best Same Game NBA Parlay Tonight: Hornets vs. Wizards

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.

Bradley Under 9.5 Assists & Over 27.5 Points

The Wizards have been playing without virtually all of their point guards recently, which has forced Beal into a larger role as a distributor. He has racked up at least 10 dimes in back-to-back games, including a career-high 17 in his last outing.

Still, Beal is not a natural distributor. He has handed out nine assists or fewer in 27 of 30 games this season, so his assist prop has become inflated by his recent performances.

If fading Beal’s assist total, it makes sense to back him as a scorer. That is what Beal does best, and he averaged at least 30.5 points per game in each of the past two seasons. He has not been quite as good in that department this season – he is averaging just 23.6 points per game – but his shooting efficiency has been down. Beal has scored the ball better recently, averaging 29.8 points over his previous five games.

The Hornets also represent an elite matchup for Beal’s scoring prospects. They have played at the fastest pace in the league this season, and they are just 28th in defensive efficiency. The Wizards are currently implied for 116.5 points, which represents a sizable increase from their season average of 106.5.

Miles Bridges Over 17.5 Points, 5.5 Rebounds, 2.5 Assists

Bridges returned to the lineup following a brief two-game absence, but he was limited to just 25.6 minutes in his first game back. However, that game turned into a blowout, with the Hornets ultimately losing by 34 points against the Suns.

He should take a sizable step forward in playing time vs. the Wizards. He is projected for 35.9 minutes, and Bridges is an elite target in the player prop market if he plays that much. He is averaging 19.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per 36 minutes this season, so all of his current numbers are too low. The Wizards rank 23rd in defensive efficiency, so the Hornets also have more offensive upside than usual.

Kyle Kuzma Under 18.5 Points

Adding this wager to the previous five increases the potential payout on this same-game parlay to around +2200.

Kuzma has been red-hot scoring the ball recently, averaging 25.3 points over his past three games. That said, he has shot an unsustainable 57.4% from the field. He is averaging just 13.9 points per game this season, so he seems like a prime regression candidate moving forward.

Overall, OddsShopper gives Kuzma a 68% chance of hitting the under on 18.5 points. That makes it more than good enough to add to our same-game parlay.
