The NBA regular season is starting to wind down, with teams playing the final quarter of their games. While it does seem pretty clear which teams will be involved with post-season action, their positioning is still definitely up in the air. Both conferences have at least 3 teams being just 3.5 games above the 7th seed in the standings. A bad run of games for any of them, and they will have to earn their ticket to the playoffs the hard way. Tonight’s action should give us more clarity of who these teams will be. You can check out all of our NBA picks for today’s games, but for now, let’s check out my predictions for Wednesday’s NBA mega parlay.
Wizards vs Rockets over 226.5 (-110)
Knicks vs Trail Blazers over 206 (-110)
Clippers vs Bulls over 215.5 (-110)
NBA parlay odds: +596

Washington Wizards vs Houston Rockets over 226.5 (-110)
Over the last 10 games, the Washington Wizards have been playing the type of basketball that suits itself to high-scoring games. They have ranked 3rd in the league in pace of play over the last 10 games while also being 27th in defensive rating. With Alperen Sengun going down for the Houston Rockets, neither team will have a reliable post-scorer they will try and work the ball into the paint for. It should see both play at a higher tempo tonight. With players on the hosts’ roster like Jalen Green, they should be well-suited to flourish offensively in this type of game. Over the last 10 games, the Wizards are 24th in blocks per game. With the Rockets losing their starting center, they should start struggling in this category too. Look for both teams to have success finishing in the paint here, which should help cash the over.

New York Knicks vs Portland Trail Blazers over 205.5 (-110)
The New York Knicks’ offense looked rejuvenated with the return of OG Anunoby. They jumped from 73 points against the Philadelphia 76ers right before his return up to 106 against the very same opponent the following night. Over the last 5 games, the 76ers were 7th in defensive rating. Tonight’s opponents, the Portland Trail Blazers, have been just 25th in that category during the same stretch. They also still have the weapons to put up points on their own. They have scored at least 99 points in 8 straight games, with each surpassing the 206.5 game total. Deandre Ayton and Anfernee Simons both scored over 30 points in their last outing. I expect the Knicks to drop around 115 points tonight. Look for the Trail Blazers’ pair to do enough to bring the rest of the line over.
Los Angeles Clippers vs Chicago Bulls over 214.5 (-110)
The Los Angeles Clippers have seen 4 of their last 5 games surpass the combined 216-point target. I expect them to continue that run tonight as they take on a fatigued Chicago Bulls team. The hosts played overtime last night against one of the faster teams in the league, the Indiana Pacers. It should help see a drop-off in their defensive effort here while also encouraging the visitors to play up-tempo basketball. The Bulls have already struggled to get stops, ranking 25th in defensive rating over the last 10 games. The Clippers are not much better in that category, ranking 24th. With Kawhi Leonard being questionable to play, the visitors could be missing one of their key defensive stoppers they could deploy on DeMar DeRozan. Considering the Bulls star dropped 46 points last night, he should be well positioned to help carry this total over.
