Pacers ML

Leading off my NBA parlay predictions is the Pacers moneyline. They actually opened as the favorite but have since become a slight underdog.

There must have been plenty of betting action on the Lakers because I’m staying away from this Lakers team right now, especially on the road.

As mentioned, the Lakers have lost three of their last 10.

As a road favorite this season, the Lakers are just 5-9-1 against the spread.

As an away team in general, the Lakers are 15-18-1 against the spread.

There is a positive trend with the Lakers coming off one day of rest as they’re 27-17-1 against the spread, but lately, this team cannot stop anyone defensively.

Over their last three games, the Lakers allow 127.3 points per game.

That’s the most among any team in the NBA over that stretch.

The Pacers are also a team with a ton of depth—I can’t exactly say the same for the Lakers.

Indiana has seven players averaging double-digit points, headed up by Pascal Siakam’s 20.8 per outing.

The Lakers injury report still lists Hachimura and James. James appears to be OK after scoring 24 on Monday against Orlando, but Hachimura has scored more than five points in any of his last three games.

On Monday, Hachimura had just five points and three rebounds in 24 minutes.

This will have to be another heavy-duty game for James and Luka Doncic, but we saw that against the Bulls recently (they had a combined 51 points) and lost 146-115.

I don’t trust this Lakers defense right now, especially against a Pacers team that shoots 48.9% from the floor (third).

I’ll take the home team getting a favorable moneyline.

Aaron Nesmith 12+ Points

After checking out potential additions for my NBA Same Game Parlay today, Nesmith’s points stuck out.

This season, he’s averaging about 25 minutes per game, averaging 11.5 points per outing.

However, he's been excellent over his last five games, going for 14 or more in five of them.

He fell short on March 22 against Brooklyn with just six points but also played 22 minutes, the least of any game over his last five.

Nesmith is a 38.2% 3-point shooter. He’s attempted no less than three over his last five games and has made no less than two of them.

The Lakers are typically pretty solid against the 3-point shot, but over their last three games, they’ve been 13th in opponent 3-point shooting percentage (38.8%).

Additionally, teams are making, on average, 15.0 of them against the Lakers over their last three games (tied for sixth-most).

Nesmith should hit 12 with ease here unless he goes cold from beyond the arc.

Bennedict Mathurin 4+ Rebounds

Of the best parlay bets today in the NBA for this matchup, this one seems like one of the safer options despite the Lakers' prowess against rebounds.

Over his last five games, Mathurin has logged four rebounds or more in all of them.

This season, across 65 games, Mathurin has finished with four rebounds or more in 43 of them (66.2%).

Collectively, over his last five games, Mathurin has recorded 36 rebounds. Of those, eight have been offensive rebounds.

This season, the Lakers are allowing 11.0 offensive rebounds (14th-least) and just 51.6 total (9th-least) per game.

Yes, the Lakers have done well against rebounds, but the standalone line for this prop is -170, and this season, Mathurin averages 5.4 per game.

In the Lakers last outing against Orlando, seven players had at least four rebounds.

Mathurin will hit this mark.

Myles Turner 1+ Blocks

Finally, I’m taking Turner to have at least one block for the last leg of this Same Game Parlay.

Over his last five games, Turner has had three blocks or less in four of them.

This season, Turner is averaging 1.9 blocks per game.

On the road this season, the Lakers are allowing 4.6 of their shots to be blocked per game, which is eighth-least in the league.

Considering this, I opted for Turner to record just one block or more, which has a standalone line of -700.

Considering he’s averaging nearly two per game and has had three or more in each of his last four games, this is a safe addition.
