Top NBA Parlay Picks for Sunday: Gobert to Hit the Boards Hard

Top NBA parlay picks for March 6. Three-leg parlay for a big payout this week! Don't miss out! SBR - trusted by bettors for over 20 years.

Our experts have pieced together a three-leg of NBA parlay picks with odds of +631 for Sunday's exciting slate of basketball action.

As the playoff race intensifies, betting on basketball becomes just as much about identifying team goals as it is about evaluating team quality. For instance, some squads may hold back in one game to rest up for a more competitive matchup the next day. Others may hold back entirely as they await the end of their losing season - and the NBA draft.

It can be challenging to get a read on both of those factors, but I've dug up three plays to parlay together that factor in the realities of late-season betting.

Here are our top NBA parlay picks for Sunday's action (odds via DraftKings Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Top NBA Parlay Predictions

Jackson Jr. Over 1.5 made threes (+135)

The Memphis Grizzlies just beat the Orlando Magic by 28 last night. The Grizzlies were able to give their starters some rest in that contest, and Jaren Jackson Jr. played only 25 minutes, well below his season average of 28. That leaves him fresh for Sunday's contest.

As a result, we're targeting Jackson to make some noise from the three-point line. A pair of compelling reasons led me to target this prop. First, the Houston Rockets have played terrible defense against opposing bigs, whether close to the hoop or far from it. Opposing power forwards have rattled off 2.3 made threes per game this year, the sixth-most in the association. That number has spiked to an NBA-high 3.7 per game through Houston's last seven contests.

Next, Jackson attempts plenty of shots from beyond the arc. He averages 5.3 long-distance shots per game and makes 1.6 of them. Jackson went 2-for-6 from the three-point line against the Rockets earlier this year, and he has gone Over this number in 30 of his 64 contests. That gives him a hit rate of 46.9%, a healthy margin higher than this line's implied odds of 42.6%.

The Grizzlies could easily blow the Rockets out tonight, but look for Jackson's shooting to play a key part in getting them out to an early lead.

Gobert Over 13.5 rebounds (+100)

This NBA parlay pick is a little bit dangerous because the Utah Jazz will face the injury-riddled Oklahoma City Thunder tonight. This game could easily devolve into a blowout. But the books understand the extra risk, and they have cut this number and jacked up the juice as a result. Let's take the value they're giving us.

The Thunder will feature Isaiah Roby and rookie Olivier Sarr at center tonight, and that doesn't bode well for them on the glass. Roby has a rebound rate of 12.2% and Sarr's sits at 11.2%. They'll line up against Rudy Gobert and his monstrous 25.2% rebound rate.

Gobert has stepped it up on the glass this year. His 14.8 rebounds per game would be good for a career-high by more than a full board, and it currently leads the NBA.

A few other factors point to obvious value here. For one, Gobert has stayed Under this number only 17 times in 48 starts. Next, he easily beat this number in both of his prior games against the Thunder. He racked up 21 rebounds against them in October and another 17 in November. The Jazz could pull back and keep Gobert off the floor if it's a blowout, but look for him to still get his rebounds.

Cavaliers ML (-180)

After two strong showings against the Brooklyn Nets, the Toronto Raptors are on a two-game losing skid. They fell to the Detroit Pistons on Thursday and the Orlando Magic on Friday. With OG Anunoby sidelined for the foreseeable future and Fred VanVleet banged up and questionable, I expect that streak to continue.

The Raptors will face the Cavaliers here, and Cleveland has been stuck in a cold spell of its own lately. The Cavs are on a three-game skid and have gone 4-6 in their last 10. However, they had to play most of those games without Darius Garland, and his return should give them the offensive firepower necessary to beat a banged-up Raptors squad. Also, through the last three games, the Cavs have outscored the Raptors by 8.9 points per 100 possessions.

The Cavaliers sit at 2-0 against the Raptors on the year. They took them down by one point back in November and then by 45 in December. We probably won't see a blowout of that magnitude here, but the Cavaliers won't let a winnable game pass them by as they jockey for position in the Eastern Conference.

Combined Odds: Jackson Jr. Over 1.5 made threes (+135) + Gobert Over 13.5 rebounds (+100) + Cavaliers ML (-180) = +631.
