We shook off an absolutely brutal ending to last week by taking the weekend off. I still can’t believe the Oklahoma City Thunder laid a big egg against the Sacramento Kings sans De’Aaron Fox. For Monday’s NBA parlay picks, I’ve fired up a 4-leg, +381 parlay on DraftKings with a 25% boost. It’s a Bulls-Bucks same-game parlay, and we’re honing in on some Giannis Antetokounmpo props to build our parlay. Let’s go.
NBA Parlay Picks Today: 5-Leg +621 Parlay Friday
Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 10.5 Rebounds (NBA Player Prop)
Giannis has been absolutely nuking everything since he put up that dud against the Raptors on Nov. 1. Tonight, he gets a matchup against the awful Chicago Bulls, who are on the wrong end of a back-to-back. This looks like a great spot to fire up the over for Giannis’ rebounds prop, and the 10.5 is a good number.
The Bulls are a bottom-five team in the NBA against opposing bigs and have given up monster games on the glass to Jusuf Nurkic, Walker Kessler, and, just a night ago, Ausar Thompson. Giannis is better than all of them and should control the boards tonight.
Giannis Antetokounmpo 1+ Steals (NBA Player Prop)
The Bulls played most of their starters for over 30 minutes last night, which likely means tired legs will be in effect here tonight. It also means we could see more minutes from the second unit, which bodes well for this bet.
Giannis is averaging a steal per game so far this season and was snatching everything out of ing lanes in his last game, grabbing four steals. This feels like a spot where there could be some poor decisions made by the Bulls and some lazy es with it being a back-to-back, and Giannis could be jumping ing lanes again. Fire up the 1+ steal prop here.
Bucks-Bulls OVER 220.5 (NBA Pick)
One thing we know is that Milwaukee hasn’t been great on defense this season, but the Bulls haven’t been a killer unit, either. Granted, Chicago hasn’t been as bad as the Bucks, but they can still give it up.
I think there’s value here on the over for the standard (228/228.5), but we can tease it down a little with a boost. Let’s take the game total down to 220.5 and look for the Bucks to get somewhere in the 112-116 range and hope the tired Bulls legs get a little bit of a boost with how bad the Milwaukee defense is.
Bucks Moneyline vs Bulls (NBA Prediction)
We’re not getting fancy here. The Bulls chug. The Bucks are starting to get it together and will likely get Damian Lillard back tonight. Chicago is also playing its second game in as many nights, and I don’t see them containing Giannis in this one.
This could be the Giannis smash game, and he’s going to be leading the Bucks to a win. Fire up the Milwaukee moneyline.
