Friday basketball is the best. The weekend is here, and we have nearly a full slate in the NBA with 10 games taking place.
Normally, I like to do a three-leg player prop parlay considering all games, but we are changing it up tonight. We have the top two teams in the Eastern Conference facing off: the Boston Celtics hosting the Cleveland Cavaliers. I’m going to use the opportunity to build a three-leg player prop same-game parlay.
This game is extremely intriguing as Boston leads the season series, 2-1, yet the Cavs are riding an eight-game winning streak.
Here’s my favorite player prop parlay tonight in FanDuel Sportsbook’s NBA betting odds.
Today’s Top NBA Player Prop Parlay
Leg 1: Evan Mobley Over 17.5 Points (+104)
Evan Mobley is on a roll in the month of February. He is averaging over 20 points per game and has had at least 17 points in 4 straight games. Mobley has been attacking defenses more aggressively, playing more efficiently, and is shooting a career best from three. Plus, the last time Mobley played in Boston, he put up 22 points.
Leg 2: Derrick White Over 3.5 Made Threes (-104)
Derrick White has started finding some consistency beyond the arc. In three consecutive games he has made at least at last five three pointers. The volume of shots for White continues to increase, averaging 9 attempts from three the last five games. Cleveland sits just in the middle of the pack in terms of three point defense. Last time these two teams played, White attempted went 6 for 12 from three.
Leg 3: Jayson Tatum Over 27.5 Points (-114)
Lastly, let’s talk about Jayson Tatum.
He has been a little inconsistent the last few games, but I love the matchup for him against the Cavs. Intensity will be high as both teams know the importance of winning this game. Tatum has averaged over 29 points this season, putting up 33 the last time they played the Cavs at home. We could also see an increase in usage for Tatum tonight if Jaylen Brown doesn’t go.
The Celtics need to bounce back from their 20-point loss to the Detroit Pistons and there is no better guy to bet on than Tatum.
