It’s the first weekend of December in the NBA and we have a 7-game slate coming our way. Last Tuesday we landed a +670 odds mega parlay, and I’m hoping to end the week on a strong note with another win today.
Check out our NBA predictions on the spread and total for all 7 games today, but without wasting any more time let’s jump straight into my mega parlay now!
Sacramento Kings ML (+100)
Dallas Mavericks -1.5 (-110)
Utah Jazz -4 (-110)
Parlay odds: +616
Sacramento Kings ML (+100)
After cooling off a bit with a 3-game losing streak, the Kings returned to winning ways in style with a 137-114 win over the Indiana Pacers in their last game. This will actually be the second meeting of the season between these teams, LA came out on top 111-109 in late October, in what was the second game of the season for both teams. So revenge will be on the minds of De’Aaron Fox, Domantas Sabonis and Kevin Huerter. Sacramento has covered in 11 of 16 games, this will be a true character test for them.
There’s still no reliable news on the status of Paul George, Kawhi Leonard and Luke Kennard ahead of tonight’s game. The trio has missed the last 5 games, without them the Clippers went 2-3 SU. I fancy the Kings’ chances. They’ve had a few minor bumps on the road lately, but over their last 11 games they have 8 really solid wins. They’ve covered in 5 of 6 games against West teams, and I have them winning outright here.

Dallas Mavericks -1.5 (-110)
The Dallas Mavericks are looking to end a 6-game road losing streak when they go on the road to face the New York Knicks. I think this is a buy-low spot for the Mavericks. They have a roster that can compete with the best teams in the league. We saw that when they beat defending champions the Golden State Warriors 116-113 on Tuesday.
We can expect Mavericks All Star and early MVP candidate Luka Doncic to go for at least 30 points on any given night especially in a place like MSG. But what about his supporting cast? Well, there could be at least 2 players coming back (and possibly 3 if Kemba Walker plays). Reggie Bullock and Tim Hardaway Jr. are set to return and they will be pivotal if the Mavericks want to end their road losing streak. Hardaway has scored at least 23 points in back-to-back games along with 5 or more threes made. I think this is the game in which Bullock needs to be a little bit more aggressive and help Doncic to lead the Mavericks to victory.

Utah Jazz -4 (-110)
For the 2nd consecutive night we have the Utah Jazz in our parlay. The 5-game losing streak is a thing of the past now for them. They’ve won 2 games in a row, and last night they destroyed the Indiana Pacers 139-119 on their home floor. I think this is a pretty safe bet, considering they’ve owned the Blazers in recent head-to-head meetings. The Jazz are 8-2 SU and 7-3 ATS over the 10 most recent games between the teams and they are the much healthier team.
Mike Conley has been upgraded to questionable, getting him back would also be a massive boost for them. The list of injuries is quite long for Portland, they have Damian Lillard, Gary Payton II, Josh Hart, Nassir Little and most likely Drew Eubanks out for tonight’s game. Without Dame this team is only 4-7 SU in 11 games played this season, I just can’t see how they withstand the offensive onslaught of the Jazz in this game.
