The NBA is approaching the home stretch and we’ve got a great slate on Sunday with 8 interesting games to pore over. And what better way to celebrate than by going for a big payday? That’s right; we’re back with another mega parlay, NBA edition. I just hit the mega parlay for college basketball at +1125 on Wednesday, and then I hit it in the NBA at +1303 on Thursday!
I’m hot with these mega parlays right now, and we’ll look to keep it rolling here. We’re going big and bold again, so let’s not waste any more time. But before we dive in, don’t forget to check out our free picks on the side and total for every NBA game today.
Oklahoma City Thunder ML (+610)
Cleveland Cavaliers -4.5 (-110)
Parlay odds: +1255
Let’s break down each of the legs one by one.
Oklahoma City Thunder ML (+610) over Utah Jazz
Getting the Thunder at better than 6/1 is just too good to pass up to start off this mega parlay. The Jazz rattled off a handful of wins, and everyone became convinced that all their problems were solved. The 34-point loss they just endured at the hands of the Pelicans showed those problems are still very much present. Each of Utah’s last 3 wins has been by 5 points or fewer and most of the victories during this recent strong stretch have been against teams that were struggling. Donovan Mitchell, Bojan Bogdanovich, and Mike Conley were all just awful the other night against New Orleans.
The Thunder have showed flashes of upside recently, like when they beat the Nuggets by 12 on the road 2 games ago. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander returned to OKC’s lineup after the all-star break and has been phenomenal. In each of his first 5 games back from injury he has scored at least 29 points.
Cleveland Cavaliers -4.5 (-110) over Toronto Raptors
The Cavs have come through for us time and time again as part of these this season, so it’s only fitting we go to them for the final leg of our mega parlay. Now is the time to buy low on Cleveland. This team has been struggling recently but only due to some injuries and tough scheduling. Darius Garland is thankfully back in the lineup now, and the Cavs’ most recent loss was a super close game on the road against the 76ers.
Garland is one of the most talented players in the league and still isn’t getting nearly as much attention as he deserves. Even with their recent struggles, the Cavs have still won 8 of their last 10 at home. This is their only nationally televised game of the season (not counting NBATV games) and the crowd should be absolutely rocking. The Raptors have looked terrible recently; they are coming off back-to-back losses to the Magic and Pistons.
