NBA Props Parlay For Thursday, November 17, 2022

We have a player props parlay for Thursday night's NBA slate that we're hoping will help you cash in big. 

It's Thursday, November 17, 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 player prop bettors across the United States. 

 

NBA Props Parlay For Thursday

The first leg of our Thursday parlay sees us needing Jakob Poeltl to dish out at least four assists against the Kings. 

Next, we're also looking at Poeltl's block total, as we're hoping for at least two out of him. 

Finally, our last leg is Kevin Durant to record at least seven assists against the Blazers — despite the fact that he called out all of his teammates recently. 

PARLAY PICKS ODDS

Jakob Poeltl Over 3.5 Assists

+140
Jakob Poeltl Over 1.5 Blocks +130
Kevin Durant Over 6.5 Assists +110

Thursday NBA Props Parlay Picks

LEG 1: Jakob Poeltl Over 3.5 Assists (+140) with DraftKings

San Antonio Spurs vs. Sacramento Kings, 10:00PM ET

We're going all in on Poeltl tonight and that's something we're sure you're all very excited to hear! All jokes aside, the reality is that he's one of the most underrated players in the entire NBA. And he actually helped us cash one of our biggest parlays of the season. 

The first of our two Poeltl props sees us needing the big man to dish out at least four assists. Poeltl had five dimes against the Blazers the other night and he's actually averaging 3.7 assists per game on the year. He's a very good passer at the center position, which is part of the reason San Antonio gets him so many touches despite him not being much of a scorer. 

With Poeltl having already had eight games with at least four assists this season, it's just hard not to back him at Over 3.5 tonight. Our model has him projected for 4.3 in this game, but he has a pretty realistic shot at having at least five assists.

LEG 2: Jakob Poeltl Over 1.5 Blocks (+130) with DraftKings

San Antonio Spurs vs. Sacramento Kings, 10:00PM ET

Our next #PoeltlPlay is for the big man to have at least two blocks in this game. This is the exact bet that helped us cash a previous parlay this season, but we're going to it again in another good spot. 

The Kings are going to constantly run actions through Domantas Sabonis in this one, which means that Poeltl will be challenged a lot on the defensive end. But Poeltl is one of the best defensive bigs in the league and he should send Sabonis' shot back at least twice here — or any of the other Kings. 

This value is just impossible to pass up on at these odds. 


LEG 3: Kevin Durant Over 6.5 Assists (+110) with DraftKings

Brooklyn Nets vs. Portland Trail Blazers, 10:00PM ET

Durant might not think all that highly of his supporting cast these days, but he is going to have to pass to someone. Teams are consistently throwing double teams and other interesting looks at the Nets superstar defensively, as they just don't fear what the rest of Brooklyn's players will do with their scoring opportunities. But either way, Durant is going to continue to make the right reads and give his teammates chances to score. 

His playmaking ability has gone to another level in recent years, and he is averaging 5.3 assists per game for Brooklyn. Durant has now averaged at least 5.0 assists in six of his last seven seasons, and we just like his chances of getting at least seven in what should be a high-scoring game against the Blazers tonight. 

In our predictive analytics model's 10,000 simulations of tonight's game, Durant averaged 7.1 assists per game.
