NBA Odds Boosts
Boston Celtics vs. Portland Trail Blazers — 3:30 p.m. ET start
Boosted bet: Damian Lillard and Jayson Tatum over 7.5 combined 3-pointers: +115 on DraftKings (was +100)
The Celtics and the Blazers are each playing their second game in the bubble, and this should be a good contest. The Blazers are fighting for their playoff lives in the Western Conference, currently sitting 2.5-games back of the Grizzlies for the No. 8 seed. They hold just a 0.5-game lead over the Spurs and a 1.0-game lead over the Kings for the No. 9 seed, and they’ll need to hold those teams off if they want a shot at the postseason.
The offenses have held the edge over the defenses so far in Orlando, with the over hitting at a 61.5% clip through the first 13 games. That makes this an interesting odds boost to target. Lillard and Tatum have combined for an average of 6.7 made 3s per game, so it’s not a huge stretch to ask them to combine for at least eight Sunday.
Memphis Grizzlies vs. San Antonio Spurs — 4 p.m. ET start
Houston Rockets vs. Milwaukee Bucks — 8:30 p.m. ET start
Boosted bet: Celtics, Grizzlies, and Bucks all to win: +310 on FanDuel (was +259)
This odds boost allows you to parlay three favorites for a slightly bigger payday. The Celtics are currently -175 on the moneyline, while the Grizzlies and Bucks are both -182. The true odds on a parlay with those three teams should be around +277, so being able to grab it at +310 is a pretty nice value.
Phoenix Suns vs. Dallas Mavericks — 9 p.m. ET start
Boosted bet: James Harden, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Luka Doncic all over 26.5 points: +175 on FoxBet
If you like star power, this odds bet is for you. It allows you to grab three of the top scorers in the NBA and parlay them together. All three players have averaged at least 28.7 points per game this season, and each player scored at least 28 points in their first game during the restart. There is obviously risk any time you place a combination bet, but these guys are all capable of putting the ball in the basket at a high rate.
As always, make sure to take advantage of our staff’s favorite bets and Zachary Cohen’s betting breakdown if you’re looking for more details on today’s NBA slate. Good luck.
