NBA Parlay For Thursday, December 8, 2022

The Thursday night NBA player props parlay features some plays we're very confident in and it would pay out at +619 if it hits. 

It's Thursday, December 8, 2022, and, as always, we've simulated all of the night's NBA games 10,000 times each to determine where the value lies for basketball bettors across the United States. 

 

NBA Parlay For Thursday

On Thursday, we're looking for big performances from Paul George, Tre Jones and Nikola Jokic to help us cash our player props parlay.  

PARLAY PICKS ODDS

Paul George Over 22.5 Points

-102

Tre Jones Over 7.5 Assists

-106

Nikola Jokic Over 23.5 Points

-115

Thursday NBA Parlay Picks

LEG 1: Paul George Over 22.5 Points (-102) with DraftKings

Los Angeles Clippers vs. Miami Heat, 7:30PM ET

The point total for George is so low tonight that we'd suggest going a bit bigger on it as a solo play, in addition to throwing it into parlays. In 10,000 simulations of tonight's game, George averaged 28.0 points per game, which isn't crazy when you consider that he is one of the better offensive players in the game. 

George hasn't exactly been scoring in bunches recently, but he's bound to get back on track and will be counted on a bit more than usual as Kawhi Leonard tries to get himself comfortable on the floor. Even against a Heat team that has the potential to be hard to score on, we're riding George to turn in a good performance here. 


LEG 2: Tre Jones Over 7.5 Assists (-106) with DraftKings

Houston Rockets vs. San Antonio Spurs, 8:30PM ET

In the simulations our DimersBOT ran for tonight's Rockets-Spurs game, Jones averaged 9.4 assists per game for San Antonio. The guard has been seeing the floor well all season long and he already has 11 games in which he has hit the eight-assist mark this year. Considering that's all he has to do in this meeting, it's hard not to back him in this spot. 

This game has a total of 230.5 and is expected to be a high-paced shootout. With that in mind, you'll want to have props bets on the primary ball handler for the Spurs. 


LEG 3: Nikola Jokic Over 23.5 Points (-115) with DraftKings

Denver Nuggets vs. Portland Trail Blazers, 10:00PM ET

Jokic has had some trouble scoring on the Blazers in recent seasons, but seeing his point total down at 23.5 just doesn't sit right with us. Jokic has already had 11 games in which he has scored at least 24 points this season, so this is just a number we've seen him reach with regularity. 

Portland is also just 23rd in the league in defensive rating this season, so this isn't exactly a team that is tough to score on. That's a big part of the reason our model has the big man projected for 31.6 points tonight.
