So far this week we have cashed on 2 NBA parlays and with a 10-game slate coming our way on Saturday, we’ll be looking to cash on yet another one. I’ve picked out my 3 favorite teams, continue reading below to see them.
Check out our NBA picks on the side and total for all 10 Saturday’s games.
Now let’s dive into my bet!
Kings vs Raptors Over 231.5 (-110)
76ers ML over Grizzlies (+120)
Cavaliers +2 over Bucks (-110)
NBA Mega Parlay odds: +701
Kings vs Raptors Over 231.5 (-110)
We start off our parlay in Toronto, where the Raptors host the Sacramento Kings. I think it’s fair to say neither of these 2 teams will wow you with their defensive effort this season. The Kings are allowing 114 points per game in away games, while the Raptors are at 125.3 allowed per game — which is dead last in the NBA. Toronto will also be playing on a 2nd night of a back-to-back following its 131-125 home loss to the Lakers. The Raptors’ last 3 opponents have now scored 131, 138 and 127 points against them. It’s also worth pointing out that 7 of the last 10 meetings between these 2 teams have gone over the total, with an average of 234.6 points per game scored. I’ll back the points in this one.
76ers ML over Grizzlies (+120)
Neither Paul George nor Joel Embiid is yet to play a single minute for the 76ers this season, but they were seen practicing on Friday — which could mean we get to see them in action tonight. The Sixers are desperate to get something goin; they find themselves near the bottom of the East at just 1-3 after 4 games played. Tyrese Maxey is trying to carry to load all by himself; he’s averaging 31.5 points per game on the season. Philadelphia would be wise to start both Embiid and George, because after tonight’s game the Sixers go out on a 3-game west coast road trip. Assuming those 2 play, you can only imagine the crowd support the team will get as they search for their first home win of the season. I can definitely see them taking down the shorthanded Grizzlies.

Cavaliers +2 over Bucks (-110)
You really have to wonder why the Bucks are -2 favorites. They are playing a Cavaliers team that’s a perfect 6-0 to start the new season and is dominating opponents in almost every statistical category imaginable. The Cavs also rank 5th in defense, allowing just 107.7 points per game. Moreover, only the New York Knicks have a better 3-point percentage this season. Milwaukee just suffered a massive beatdown at the hands of the Memphis Grizzlies, losing by 23 points on the road. Damian Lillard has gone ice cold from 3-point land after his season opener 6-of-12 effort against Philadelphia. Since then he is at just 18.2% from downtown. The Bucks are searching for answers; until Khris Middleton returns, I just can’t see them consistently beating teams. Over the last 12 meetings the Cavs are 8-4 ATS, plus they have beaten Milwaukee 4 times in the last 6 head-to-head. I’m going with the Cavaliers to close out our parlay.
