It's Opening Night in the NBA, and Sportsbook Review betting analyst Jon Metler has cooked up an NBA same-game parlay for Tuesday's games using the top NBA odds from our best NBA betting sites.

WE ARE BACK!

It's Opening Night in the NBA, and there's only one way to properly celebrate the occasion, and that is with an NBA same-game parlay.

I can guarantee that you will like the players I used in Tuesday's SGP, but I'm not going to lie, you're probably going to be disappointed when you see the sides I took.

To accompany Shane Jackson's Lakers vs. Nuggets NBA player props, here are our NBA same-game parlay picks for Tuesday, and don't miss Zachary Hanshew's Lakers-Nuggets prediction (odds via FanDuel).

NBA parlay predictions: Lakers vs. Nuggets

LeBron James Under 24.5 points vs. Nuggets (-125 via FanDuel

It's not a shocker to see this bet also make its way into our Lakers-Nuggets same-game parlay as it was featured in my NBA best bets article for Tuesday. We're going to need Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon to lock down James one more time, as he defended him extremely well in the Western Conference Finals last season. The price has moved 10 cents from where I suggested betting it as a straight bet but at -125, it is still worthy of a wager.

James is projected to have 23.2 points on Tuesday against the Nuggets, which allows us to price this prop at -149. You can see that there is plenty of wiggle room with this number, which is why we can still attack the -125.

Anthony Davis Under 11.5 rebounds vs. Nuggets (+100 via FanDuel

If you look at Davis' stats against the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals, you're going to want to smash the Over on this number, but this is the regular season now. In Game 1 of 82 games, Davis isn't playing 40-plus minutes on Tuesday, and the Lakers have also added some frontcourt depth in the offseason that should cut into Davis' rebounding numbers.

This total is trading at 12.5 at most of our other best NBA betting sites, but with Davis projected to have 11.2 rebounds against the Nuggets, playing the Under 11.5 at +100 is very much a +EV wager for us.

Jamal Murray Under 2.5 made threes vs. Lakers (+120 via FanDuel

Murray was the Lakers' kryptonite in the Western Conference Finals, as he absolutely torched them the entire series, averaging 32.5 points per game. So why am I targeting the Under 2.5 made threes for Murray in this same-game parlay on Opening Night? 

In the preseason, Murray fell on his wrist in a game against the Chicago Bulls, and in the following game, his wrist was taped. The Nuggets' broadcast made some comments about how Murray was struggling with the 3-point shot, and I think this information is flying under the radar a bit. The price is right at +120.
