NBA Three-Leg Parlay To Bet Today, Christmas Day - December 25, 2022
We're trying to make your Christmas Day as profitable as possible, so let's cash this three-leg NBA player props parlay together. We've already done our NBA best bets for Sunday, December 25, but now we're looking for something that can help us cash in a much bigger way. And we have some stars thrown into this parlay, with Joel Embiid and Jayson Tatum being two of the players we're turning too. However, we're also looking at Reggie Bullock to help us cash in the meeting between the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks. It isn't always the superstar that helps you win the most money! Having said all of that, make sure you sit back and relax on a Sunday in which you should be focusing on enjoying these games with family. But while you're with them, feel free to feed them some of these picks!

Sunday NBA Parlay Analysis
Philadelphia 76ers vs. New York Knicks, 12:00PM ET
LEG 1: Joel Embiid Under 30.5 Points (-110) with DraftKings
Our model has a massive edge on Embiid's Under in this one, as we have him projected for only 22.3 points in this one. That's well under his total of 30.5, so how can you not play it here?
While Embiid will have a massive advantage in strength over whoever the Knicks put on him, this New York team is one of the best ones in basketball on the defensive end. The Knicks are up to ninth in the league in defensive rating this year, and they're second in the league in the last 10 games. Look for Tom Thibodeau to do his best to get the ball out of Embiid's hands in this one, leading to an Under to start our parlay.
Los Angeles Lakers vs. Dallas Mavericks, 2:30PM ET
LEG 2: Reggie Bullock Over 4.5 rebounds (+130) with DraftKings
In 10,000 simulations of Sunday afternoon's meeting between the Lakers and Mavericks, Bullock averaged 4.7 rebounds per game. With that in mind, we love seeing him at plus-money odds to pull down five in this spot.
This is a game that we expect to be played a high pace, which means there will be some extra possessions for both teams. That'll mean more rebounding opportunities for Bullock, who has had at least six rebounds in three of his last four games. We think he can easily pull down five in this spot, so we're taking a shot on him in our player props parlay.

📈 Betting preview: Lakers vs. Mavericks
Milwaukee Bucks vs. Boston Celtics, 5:00PM ET
LEG 3: Jayson Tatum Over 4.5 Assists (+115) with DraftKings
The Bucks are one of the best defensive teams in the entire NBA, so Tatum might not score as many points as usual on Christmas Day. However, he will have the ball in his hands a lot, so there will be opportunities for him to go and find his teammates for some easy shots in this one.
Our model had Tatum projected for 5.2 assists per game in the 10,000 simulations it ran on this one, so we think it's a good idea to play him at plus-money odds to finish with at least five dimes. He had five against the Timberwolves last game, and he has also reached that mark in two of his last four games.
Let's hope for Tatum to turn in a good game as a playmaker to help us finish off our parlay.
