Indiana Pacers -6.5 over Orlando Magic (-110)
We’re starting off our NBA parlay picks in Indiana where the 3-4 Pacers host the shorthanded Orlando Magic. At just 1-5 SU in away games this season, the Magic are one of the worst road teams in the NBA. They’re currently on a 4-game losing streak and struggling heavily to score the basketball with their superstar Paolo Banchero out of the lineup. They’ve failed to crack the 100-point mark 3 times in 4 games, and that’ll likely be problematic as they go up against the high-flying Pacers. Indy is coming off a huge win in Dallas where they beat the Mavs 134-127, which was their 2nd win in 3 games. I’m expecting the Pacers to go on a bit of a run in the coming days and weeks, as this team is far better than what their record is saying right now. They’re 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games, and being the healthier team here they should have very little issue covering the spread.
Golden State Warriors ML over Boston Celtics (+245)
Golden State has been surprisingly good to start the season. Shooter Klay Thompson is now in Dallas, but the Warriors are 6-1 SUATS. Apparently, they did not get the memo that they were supposed to take a step back as they aged in the super-competitive Western Conference. All that success and Steph Curry is not even averaging 20 ppg. Plus, nobody is averaging even 30 minutess per game. Boston is a pretty significant favorite in this spot. Since these teams met in the NBA Finals a couple of years back, they have split their regular season games, with each team winning at home. If anyone can beat the Celtics at TD Garden, it’s Curry and his Warriors. Golden State has covered in 6 of 7 meetings and is 5-2 SU in those games. Plus, dating back to last season this team is 11-2 SU in road games overall.

New York Knicks vs Atlanta Hawks Under 225.5 (-110)
To close out today’s NBA parlay picks, I am going for the under in the Knicks and Hawks game. The main reason is the absence of Trae Young for Atlanta, as the Hawks are not even remotely the same team when he doesn’t play. Atlanta’s offense is just too dependable on his 30 points and 11.7 assists per game, and we saw them score just 40 points in the 2nd half of their last game when Young went out with an injury.
New York should put the clamps down on Atlanta, as they play at the slowest pace in the league so far this season, averaging just 95.2 possessions per game. Although we have seen offensive explosions from Karl-Anthony Towns and company in a couple of games, I am not expecting that scenario to unfold here. The last 10 meetings have averaged 223.2 points per game, and all things considered, that should land us just under the total.
