NBA Same Game Parlay Picks Today
- Ja Morant UNDER 26.5 Points
- Paul George OVER 24.5 Points
- James Harden UNDER 5.5 Rebounds
- PAYOUT: +564
Ja Morant UNDER 25.5 Points (-104)
Ja Morant has eclipsed this market number in 3 of 4 games since returning from his suspension, but it is doubtful that he is going to be able to continue scoring at such an elite pace. The teams he has faced thus far have weak perimeter defenses that have allowed him to shoot 50.6% from the floor, which is significantly higher than his 47.3% career success rate. Morant is also averaging 36.3 minutes per game this season, which is likely to regress considering he has never averaged more than 32.6 minutes in any other season in his career. The Clippers have length on the perimeter that is likely to give Morant issues this evening.
Paul George OVER 24.5 Points (-104)
Paul George has been most efficient at home this year, shooting 45.6% from the field and 42.6% from 3-point territory compared to 44.9% from the field and 38.3% from 3-point territory on the road. In the four games that Ja Morant has played this year, the Grizzlies defense ranks 20th in opponent 3-point attempts allowed per game. Playing in front of his home fans against a team that has struggled to defend small forwards could allow for a spike performance from him.
James Harden UNDER 5.5 Rebounds (-108)
In 25 games this season, James Harden has only eclipsed this market number 9 times. According to props.cash, the last opposing point guard to collect 6+ rebounds against the Grizzlies was Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on December 18. Memphis has improved their numbers on the glass significantly since Morant returned to the lineup, which makes this play a worthwhile inclusion in today’s parlay.
