We don’t have a lot going on in terms of NBA tonight. These guys are professional athletes but they need rest too. Still, there are 3 games on the NBA slate tonight and one of them is the Portland Trail Blazers vs Los Angeles Clippers game at 10:30pm ET. It’s on TNT so that means everybody can watch it. There has to be an angle for a same game parlay.
Let’s take a look at the best options for this showdown and don’t forget to check out our full game previews for picks on the sides and totals of all the NBA games tonight. As always, follow me on Twitter just in case there are more NBA player props to bet.
Los Angeles Clippers -8.5 (+205)
CJ McCollum 4+ made threes (+164)
Parlay odds: +809
Los Angeles Clippers -8.5 (+205)
It feels crazy to fade a team like the Portland Trail Blazers, who have won 2 straight games, but I think we have to. Not only do I think they’ll get beat tonight, I think they’ll get beat bad. First off, their last 2 wins are fake. They beat the Los Angeles Lakers and Indiana Pacers. Big deal. It’s a good thing they played them at home because had those games been on the road, there’s a good chance they would have lost. I did some digging and it seems Portland only wins at home. Literally. They haven’t won a game on the road all season. The last time they played the Clippers in Los Angeles they got beaten by 30 points. I have no faith in the Blazers on the road and will gladly take the Clippers to win by at least 9 points at +205 tonight.

CJ McCollum 4+ made threes (+164)
I know the Blazers stink on the road but it’s not because of CJ McCollum. That guy doesn’t stink anywhere. It feels pretty wild to take a guy to drain at least 4 threes in a game at only +164 but with McCollum, it’s really not. Portland has played only 10 games this season and CJ has canned at least 4 threes in 7 of them. In the Blazers’ trip to Los Angeles he went 4 for 11 from downtown. They lost by 30 but he still hit 4 threes. In fact, he’s hit 4 threes in 3 of the Blazers’ 4 road losses this season. Why can’t he do it again tonight?
