This week’s NBA action continues with a 3-game slate coming our way on Saturday. The highlight of the night is in the Bay Area, as the Warriors host the red-hot Celtics. I’ve included that game in this mega parlay, along with two other picks. Head over to our NBA predictions for picks on the spread and total for every game on the board, but for now, let’s jump into our NBA mega parlay.
Boston Celtics -2 (-110)
Chicago Bulls ML (-110)
Los Angeles Clippers -4.5 (-105)
Parlay odds: +608

Boston Celtics -2 (-110) over Golden State Warriors
Traditionally, I’d look to back the Warriors in what should be a great spot for Golden State to play with motivation at home. And while the Warriors have been much better at the Chase Center this season, I can’t step in front of Boston. This Celtics team has been dominant through the first 26 games of the campaign, posting the best offensive rating in NBA history to this point. We know Boston’s defense has been excellent over the last 12 months, and the Celtics should have extra incentive to guard for 48 minutes against the defending champs.
Golden State still hasn’t figured out its rotations yet and while I expect a spirited effort from the Warriors, their home record will have to regress at some point. Backing the Celtics in an obvious revenge spot is the only way I can look.

Chicago Bulls ML (-110) over Dallas Mavericks
This is an ideal spot for Chicago, as the Bulls will get a couple of days off following a much-needed win over Washington on Wednesday. Chicago has struggled to find consistency to this point, while the Mavericks are in the midst of a 3-game winning streak. However, Dallas will have to play this game as the second of a back-to-back with the Bucks. Given the travel and quick turnaround, I’ll back the Bulls to extend their winning streak at home.

Los Angeles Clippers -4.5 (-105) vs Washington Wizards
The Clippers are often an inconsistent team due to the nature of their roster. It goes without saying that when Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are in the starting 5, Los Angeles is an extremely difficult team to match up with on both ends of the floor. Fortunately, we should be seeing both Leonard and George in Saturday’s contest against a Wizards team that just played a game in Indiana last night. Even without Leonard and George for most of the season, Los Angeles is still 5th in defensive rating. Look for the Clippers’ offensive production to improve, while their defense continues to be a top-flight unit. I’ll grab this number with Los Angeles.
