Sunday basketball is upon us, and with four games on the slate, there are plenty of NBA picks to go around.

We've rounded up SGP picks for each of the April 28 matchups, breaking down the NBA playoff odds to help you with your bets for today.

Tonight's NBA same-game parlay picks

Our betting experts have scoured through today's NBA odds to find your best SGP bets for Saturday's NBA lineup:

Knicks vs 76ers same-game parlay (SGP)

Joel Embiid Over 33.5 points

76ers moneyline

Over 208.5

If Joel Embiid has a vintage game on Sunday, he should be able to get the 76ers back in this series. In addition, I’m adding a bet on the Over to my same-game parlay. These two teams have averaged 219.7 points per game so far in this series, and there’s no reason to expect a huge change from form in Sunday’s matchup.

Clippers vs Mavericks same-game parlay (SGP)

Paul George Over 20.5 points

P.J. Washington Over 1.5 made threes

Clippers +6

P.J. Washington has been walking into an endless supply of open shots ever since the trade that brought him to Dallas, and I’m targeting his sharpshooting to build out my SGP.

With Doncic and Irving at the controls, scrambling defenses are continually helping off the rest of the Mavs’ shooters, and I see Washington taking advantage this afternoon — particularly with Tim Hardaway Jr. listed as doubtful.

I’m looking past Washington’s 0-for-4 dud from 3-point range on Friday and picking him to nail at least two triples, something he’s done in 11 of his past 14 outings.

Even if Leonard is limited or unavailable, this still feels like a tight battle, with the Clippers likely to have an extra layer of desperation with their season on the brink. 

The ATS line feels a little high, so I’m grabbing the points with the visitors and counting on George, Harden, Russell Westbrook, and Norman Powell to keep L.A. within striking distance, though they’ll need to find their stroke from downtown after back-to-back shaky outings.

Bucks vs Pacers same-game parlay (SGP)

Pacers -9.5

Aaron Nesmith Over 12.5 points

Tyrese Haliburton Over 17.5 points

Aaron Nesmith remains a screaming buy. Nesmith was given a lot of offensive involvement in Game 3, shooting 13 times total, which included seven 3-pointers. He managed to make just three shots total (including just one three), yet still went over his total of 11.5.

For Game 4, he's been marked up to just 12.5 points, a total he has eclipsed in ten of his last 17 home games.

Another player who should see an uptick in scoring, given their usage, is Tyrese Haliburton, who has had a quiet series thus far. To his credit, he logged 18 points in Game 3 compared to the 21 total points he logged in the first two games, and he was definitely more trigger happy as well, with 22 shot attempts to the 17 across the first two.

If he can manage to have more shots fall in Game 4 (he went just 8-for-22 from the field, including 1-12 from three), he should fly past his 17.5 total.

Timberwolves vs Suns same-game parlay (SGP)

Suns team total Under 106.5

Timberwolves moneyline

Naz Reid Over 9.5 points

If Phoenix cannot find a way to score easily, it has to be assumed Minnesota wins this game. Everything the Timberwolves do stems from their defense. Any defensive success should yield enough offense to notch this win.

Some of that offense will come from Naz Reid. If the Suns play small ball, Reid should feast. He is too big for Gordon or O’Neale to bother his shot. Anytime Reid gets a step on a smaller defender, he'll find his way into the lane for a runner or a layup.
