The NBA week continues with a sizable 11-game slate on Wednesday. It is headlined by a double-header on ESPN that begins with the Boston Celtics visiting the Cleveland Cavaliers before the Memphis Grizzlies go on the road to face the Portland Trail Blazers. Also in action are the Philadelphia 76ers, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Clippers, Milwaukee Bucks, Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers.
Here is a look at today's mega parlay.
For this 3-leg parlay we are going with 1 underdog on the money line, 1 favorite against an alternate spread and an under play. Let's break down each of the 3.
Atlanta Hawks vs New York Knicks Under 229.5 (-110)
Although neither team has played well on defense over the past 3 games, things could change at Madison Square Garden. In that building, 4 of the last 5 meetings have seen the under hit. An average of just 209.9 points per game have been scored in the last 10 games between these 2 Eastern Conference rivals. That's almost 20 points under tonight's total of 229.5 for those counting. Both the Hawks and Knicks have struggled offensively in their last 2 outings, averaging just 112 and 108 points per game, respectively. Cam Reddish and Quentin Grimes are both questionable for New York. For Atlanta, Trae Young generally owns MSG but he has been struggling with his shot this season (worse than 40 percent from the field).
