Thursday NBA Parlay Analysis

Philadelphia 76ers vs. Brooklyn Nets, 7:30PM ET

LEG 1: Tyrese Maxey Over 19.5 Points (-120) with DraftKings

Playoff series can sometimes deceive the mind. When a team goes up 2-0 at home, they look unstoppable, only to then be stopped when they head on the road. The Sixers have looked like they're in their way to a first round sweep of the Nets and despite all of our better judgment, we're not exercising caution that Philly could be in for a lull as they head to Brooklyn for Game 3. Joel Embiid has largely deferred on offense in the opening two games and Tyrese Maxey was one beneficiary in Game 2, scoring 33 points. While it'll be extremely hard for him to match those heights from two nights ago, our model is still liking him to take command with 24 points predicted.

Philadelphia 76ers vs. Brooklyn Nets, 7:30PM ET

LEG 2: James Harden Over 9.5 Assists (-111) with DraftKings

Harden may have fell short of hitting his assist prop in Game 2, but it wasn't through lack of trying. Along with Joel Embiid, Harden was in control of the offense on Tuesday night, recording 14 potential assists in addition to the seven assists he tallied. Philly have been shooting well in this series so far and are one of the top six teams in the NBA for field goal percentage throughout the year. The fact that Harden could generate so many chances but not hit that line is an anomaly that will be rectified tonight. Our NBA player prop predictor has Harden down for 11 assists.

Sacramento Kings vs. Golden State Warriors, 10:00PM ET

LEG 3: Steph Curry Over 4.5 Threes Made (-130) with DraftKings

It might end up being the most bet on prop of the night among the public, but that doesn't mean you should be fading Steph tonight. Down 0-2 in the series with their backs against the wall, if ever there was a time for the mercurial Curry to step up, it would be now. The guard has gotten the same kind of volume from range throughout this series that we are accustomed to, averaging 13.5 3PA. Curry is a much better shooter in front of his home fans this season, hitting 45.3% of his threes in San Francisco, compared with 40.6% on the road. Our predictor expects six threes from Steph.
