Best NBA Picks & Parlays Tonight: Expert Bets & Player Props for Saturday 3/12/22

On paper, this is a very fun NBA slate tonight with eight games but the ABC game sees the Milwaukee Bucks visiting the Golden State Warriors with a total of 237.5 points and a spread of just two points. The other seven games are all appealing with a spread under 10 points and respectable totals as well, leaving many routes to make NBA picks and parlays

Using this fantastic site can help place smart wagers in an easy-to-use fashion and maximize the ROI on the wagers.

Best NBA Picks and Parlays Today

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. Saturday’s version of the Prop Party features four wagers as of 11:30 a.m. on the DraftKings Sportsbook, so be sure to check OddsShopper for any updates when building any NBA parlay. 

Stephen Curry Over 6.5 Assists

It’s always a bit more fun to have a wager in the game of the night and Stephen Curry is the active leader in potential assists on the Warriors with 10.7 and he’s averaging 6.4 assists per game. Assist aren’t exactly the first statistic that comes to mind with Curry, but the Bucks are down to 13th in defensive rating and the pace should be brisk in this one since both teams are in the top half of the league. The Bucks are second in 3-point frequency allowed on the season and that could help Curry hit this assist prop. Curry is driving to the hoop 9.6 times per game and he passes out of that drive around 42.9% of the time. With just a few 3-point shots hit from that play type, Curry can snag a few assists there and his 28.5% assist rate is no mistake. The expected win rate on this wager is 62% from OddsShopper, a strong pick to kick off the NBA parlay

Tyrese Haliburton Over 9.5 Assists 

As it stands now, the Indiana Pacers facing the San Antonio Spurs carries the second-highest total of the night at 236.5 and Tyrese Haliburton is going to run the offense since Malcolm Brogdon is out tonight. Since Haliburton has been acquired by the Pacers, he’s played in 11 games and is averaging 17.9 potential assists to go along with 9.5 assists. Considering those numbers have come with Brogdon active for some of those 11 games, it speaks to just how high his potential is to hit this number. The expected win rate is 56% from OddsShopper and both teams are in the bottom 12 in defensive rating. The Spurs played last night so they may have some tired legs and Haliburton is averaging 38 minutes on the floor as a Pacer. 

Brandon Williams Over 14.5 Points

The expected win rate from OddsShopper for Brandon Williams is massive at 78% and that cannot be ignored. The Washington Wizards played in Los Angeles last night and are in Portland tonight to face the Trail Blazers, who aren’t exactly putting out their best lineup. Their entire starting rotation from the beginning of the season is either out or no longer with the team, giving the reigns to Williams currently. In his past two games without Anfernee Simons, Williams has played a combined 60 minutes and has taken 31 shot attempts. In one game, he scored 27 points and in the other, he shot 3-for-13 and the Trail Blazers got beat by nearly 40 points. That seems less likely against the Wizards tonight with a spread of six points and this number for Williams is far too low for a projection of over 20 points scored from Awesemo.

Even Mobley Over 9.5 Rebounds

This number does not seem to have reacted quick enough to the role Evan Mobley is playing in the past three games. When the Cleveland Cavaliers played the Toronto Raptors on March 6, Jarrett Allen played just 10 minutes before he broke his finger. That has left Mobley to man the center position of roughly the last three games and in that time frame, he’s averaged 21 rebounding chances with 17, 12, and 12 rebounds in those games. While the OddsShopper expected win rate is just 51%, the Chicago Bulls are 28th in rebounding on the season and are only 15th in rebounds allowed in the paint. Mobley is logging massive minutes (36, 36, and 34 in the absence of Allen) and has an excellent matchup with the Cavaliers needing every win they can get toward the end of the regular season. The four legs on the NBA parlay offer a return of +1060 according to the Awesemo NBA Parlay Calculator, which would lead to another strong night.
