The NBA brings just 4 games for us on Tuesday but is does feature a major cross-conference match. The Boston Celtics will be visiting the Golden State Warriors. While the hosts are no where near the top of their conference like the visitors are, they still have plenty of experience on their roster. Experience that will have them believing they are still in the mix for the title this season. I have picked out 3 games for today's NBA mega parlay so let's dive right into it. And as always, you can find out our NBA picks'for each of today's games.
New Orleans Pelicans -8 over Memphis Grizzlies (-110)
The Pelicans beat the Grizzlies 111-104 on opening night away from home, and tonight's game will be played at the Smoothie King Center where they are 9-4 on the season. The Pels are on a 4-game win streak and it would appear that the semifinal loss in the In-Season Tournament has woken them up a bit. They also have the rest advantage here, having played on Sunday. In their latest win against San Antonio, the most minutes played by a starter was just 27, so fatigue won't be an issue. They were also red hot from three-point land in that game, nailing a total of 22 threes. If they can be similarly productive in tonight's game, they should cover. I do not expect Ja Morant to be up to speed yet, just now coming back from his suspension.
Milwaukee Bucks -16.5 over San Antonio Spurs (-110)
The Spurs offense has not looked in sync lately. Over the last 10 games they rank 28th in offensive rating. During that stretch they have been making just 34.4% of their 3-pointers, ranking them 26th in the league. Against a Bucks team making 39.4% of their deep shots, it could help create major separation between the teams.'Over the last week Giannis Antetokounmpo is averaging 37.3 points and 13 rebounds per game. It is hard to see the visitors have an answer for him. The Bucks recently dispatched the lowly Pistons in a blowout win, building a 23-point lead in the first quarter. Do not be surprised to see them come out fast tonight too, so that they can rest their starters later in the game. Back them to cover.
