NBA Big $$$ Parlay Picks Wednesday 4/13/22

The first night of the NBA Play-In Tournament brought some great basketball, especially in the second game which featured big comebacks by each team. The matchups tonight between the Atlanta Hawks facing the Charlotte Hornets and the San Antonio Spurs going into New Orleans to face the Pelicans could be much of the same. Both games offer plenty of routes to make picks for a small NBA parlay tonight.

Using this fantastic site can help place smart wagers in an easy-to-use fashion and maximize the ROI on the wagers. 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 Picks and Parlays 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 two wagers as of 11:30 a.m. on the Caesars Sportsbook, so be sure to check for any updates.

Trae Young Over 31.5 Points

The game with the higher total at 234.5 points is the Hornet visiting the Hawks and that is not surprising in the least given that both of these teams are in the bottom eight in defensive rating and Charlotte was fifth in pace. Trae Young averaged 28.4 points during the regular season and without John Collins, that bumped up to 30.8. Collins last played on March 11th so Young has been carrying the Atlanta offense for just about a month and his minutes per game bumped up just slightly to over 35. He should play at least that many minutes tonight since there is no tomorrow with a loss and close to 40 minutes of Young is appealing. Additionally, his expected win rate from OddsShopper is 58% and he drove to the basket at a top 10 rate this season, averaging just under 11 points. Charlotte was 28th in points allowed in the paint and Young should take at least 20 shots tonight if not plenty more.

Jonas Valanciunas Over 2.5 Assists

The Pelicans have all hands on deck tonight as both Brandon Ingram and Jonas Valanciunas have shaken off some late-season injuries for tonight’s game. The latter is the targeted player here with an ROI of -115 and an expected win rate of 58% from OddsShopper. The two picks would net a return of +266 according to the Awesemo Parlay Calculator and the dynamic between these players alongside C.J. McCollum has been fun to watch. All three of these Pelicans average over 40 passes made per game since McCollum has been there, even though Ingram has only played 13 of the 24 games in that span. The Spurs can push the pace along here as they were sixth during the regular season and both teams were 16th or worse in defensive rating on the year. It is worth pointing out that the Pelicans have made big strides since the All-Star break, ranking seventh in defensive rating, while the Spurs did not. Valanciunas should be able to dish the ball enough to hit this number as he has averaged four potential assists per game since the deadline and his minutes should not be a question mark.
