Tonight's NBA same-game parlay picks
Our betting experts have scoured through today's NBA odds to find your best SGP bets for Tuesday's NBA lineup:
Bucks vs Pacers same-game parlay
Bucks +4
Bobby Portis Over 7.5 rebounds
Damian Lillard Over 2.5 threes
The Bucks will need to lean heavily on Bobby Portis with most of Indiana’s offense coming from its frontcourt pairing of Siakam and Myles Turner. After playing 25 minutes on Saturday, we may see even more minutes out of Portis after registering a team-best +3 in that time.
Portis collected eight boards in those minutes, and he grabbed 22 rebounds in two regular-season games vs. the Pacers. The glass is always a tough spot for Milwaukee, but Portis — along with a friendly matchup — should help keep it level.
Lillard also averaged nine 3-point attempts against Indiana this season, and even if he’s limited, he can climb over this short number. The Bucks shot the three incredibly well against Indiana up until Saturday’s loss, and they’ll need to rely on shooting to get themselves back into this series.

Grizzlies vs Thunder same-game parlay
Ja Morant Over 22.5 points
Desmond Bane Over 29.5 points + rebounds + assists
Zach Edey 10+ rebounds
I’m staying far away from the spread and the point total here. While I’m confident Memphis will play far better than it did in Game 1, OKC is simply too good a team to confidently bet Memphis against the spread, even with an inflated line. Instead, I’ll take aim at two additional player props.
First up is Bane, who — according to StatMuse — is the only player in the 21st century to register a plus-minus of at least -50. He, like Morant, will surely be laser-focused on delivering a more competitive game. He averaged 30.6 PRA on the season but turned it on after the break and posted 32.8 per game. He delivered 30+ PRA in four straight games before Sunday’s dud, and he reached that mark in two of four regular-season matchups.
I took a chance on Edey’s rebound line in Game 1 at 11.5. Given his increased minutes and recent rebound totals, it felt like a solid wager, but Edey was limited to just 20 minutes and finished with nine boards.
In a more competitive Game 2, expect Edey to play close to 30 minutes and record double-digit boards. His line is set at 10.5, but I took it at one board less for slightly shorter odds. He averaged 13.1 boards across his last 11 games and grabbed 10+ eight times.

Timberwolves vs Lakers same-game parlay
Jaden McDaniels 7+ rebounds
Jaden McDaniels Over 11.5 points
Jaxson Hayes Under 2.5 rebounds
Since Jan. 1, McDaniels averaged 13.9 points in 50 games and cleared this prop in 30 of them. The reality that Minnesota should shoot worse in this game will not impact McDaniels all that much, despite going 3-of-3 from long range in Game 1. He is at his best when attacking the paint, and this expectation that JJ Redick needs to move away from Hayes will only embolden McDaniels’s attacks.
The Lakers need to shift something. Removing Hayes as a perimeter defensive liability is the obvious first choice. He might not play more than a few token minutes.
