After everyone in the NBA had Thanksgiving off, we have a huge 14-game slate on our hands for Friday. You can continue digesting turkey by sitting back and not only watching college football but also taking in a smorgasbord of basketball.
Here is a look at today's mega parlay.
For this 3-team parlay we are going with 2 underdogs on the money line and 1 favorite against the spread. Let's break down each of the 3 legs.
76ers ML over Magic (+140)
The 76ers started off strongly against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday but could not hold on to the double-digit lead they had early in the first half. They will still be without Tyrese Maxey, James Harden and Joel Embiid, but the last 2 games without that trio have seen flashes. They shockingly beat the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday when the Nets were at full strength with their big 3 of Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons. Shake Milton and De'Anthony Melton have stepped up and averaged close to 20 points a game in the last 3 games and I believe they can exploit this matchup, especially if they have a big man like Franz Wagner or Bol Bol switch on them. The Magic have lost 4 of their last 5 games after falling 123-102 to the Indiana Pacers on Monday.
