It is truly betting made simple since you can find the best bet in 30 seconds or less. Take these NBA betting today, then head to OddsShopper and find your best odds.

Best NBA Parlay Picks Tonight

The first step is locating the new Parlay Builder tab on the OddsShopper home page, which is very simple to do. After that, the user can customize to their heart’s content. OddsShopper offers the parlay bets by state, sportsbooks, and a variety of parlays. This article will be featuring the Prop Party Parlay, which gives up to five player prop bets that will give you the best chance to win based on our Awesemo simulations. The prop party is the most popular betting combo within the Awesemo community and Alex “Awesemo” Baker – the world’s No. 1 daily fantasy player – uses these almost exclusively when he is looking for an edge. It is always a smart idea to bet each wager as a solo piece as a way to build the bankroll. Parlays by their nature are harder to hit, which is why the reward is so large. Wednesday’s version of the Prop Party features five wagers as of 10:15 a.m. on the DraftKings Sportsbook, so be sure to check for any updates.

John Collins Under 9.5 Rebounds

The Atlanta Hawks are the latest team to deal with missing players in the health and safety protocols, as they will be without Trae Young and Clint Capela tonight. While it is true that Collins averages 15.2 rebound chances per game, he only has a 51.8% conversion rate to average under eight rebounds per game. The Orlando Magic are just 18th in rebounding, but they are also very short-handed themselves, forcing center Robin Lopez to log big minutes for them in the past couple of games. He has had seven and 10 rebounds in those contests and can help Collins stay under 10 rebounds tonight, while OddsShopper gives him an expected win rate of 68%.

Grayson Allen Over 13.5 Points

Grayson Allen is coming off a game where he scored 25 points but there are many more reasons to take the over on this wager. For one, OddsShopper has a 69% expected win rate for the over, and that is always a good start in a five-leg parlay. Secondly, the Milwaukee Bucks are still missing Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis, among others. They face the Houston Rockets, who still sit atop the league in pace and the bottom five in defensive rating. They also allow a 43.1% frequency of 3-point attempts on the season while Allen is shooting 41.7% this year. Given the players missing and the matchup, Allen can surely hit the over on this wager.

Chimezie Metu Over 7.5 Rebounds

Since the 17th of this month, the Sacramento Kings have been playing with a short rotation due to health and safety protocols. That has allowed Chimezie Metu to play at least 31 minutes in the last three games. He has totaled 23 rebounds and is averaging 12.7 chances in that span with a 60.5% conversion rate. On the season the Los Angeles Clippers are 22nd in rebounding, so they are vulnerable on the glass. OddsShopper has an expected win rate of 61%, which is high for an underdog bet. Of the five legs, Metu’s wager is the one that is an underdog and boosts the return of the parlay overall. The Awesemo Parlay Calculator shows a return of +2540, which is very strong for a five-leg parlay.


The Latest Sports Betting Content from Stokastic Odds


Jayson Tatum Under 28.5 Points

To start this off, Jayson Tatum is averaging 25.9 points per game, which is ninth in the NBA, but also 3 points under the line. OddsShopper has a 71% expected win rate for Tatum tonight, and that is the highest of the five legs. It is fair to point out that the Cleveland Cavaliers are without Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley, which is a downgrade to their defense. They drop to about average without those two players on the floor — around 111.5 defensive rating, as opposed to the 103.3 they have on the season. Still, the Boston Celtics have both Jaylen Brown and Dennis Schroder available tonight, and they will take up plenty of scoring themselves, both averaging over 16.5 points. Lastly, Tatum only is scoring 4.1 points per game from driving to the basket, so it is not the largest facet of his game. He may not take full advantage of Allen and Mobley being out.

Nikola Jokic Under 29.5 Points

OddsShopper gives Nikola Jokic an expected win rate of 68% to round out the parlay, and there is no denying it is a phenomenal matchup for him. The Denver Nuggets face the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight, and the Thunder are vulnerable in the interior, ranking 21st in points allowed in the paint. Jokic averages 7.7 paint touches a game and scores 8.9 points in the paint per game, but he is also averaging 26.3 points total per game. Like Tatum, that is in the top 10 in the league, but the line is extremely high. Jokic leads the league in touches at 100 per game, but he is also in the top 15 in potential assists per game (13.4). Generally, being an unselfish player leads him to not be the largest threat to score 30 points on any given night, making this leg a logical addition to the parlay.
