The Christmas festivities are behind us and after a spectacular 5-game night on Monday, the NBA continues with 9 more games taking place on Tuesday. We were just 1 leg off on our Christmas Day NBA Mega Parlay, I’m hoping for a bit more luck with today’s games. Continue reading below to see my 3 favorite picks!

Now let’s dive into my bet!

DET Pistons ML (+210)

MEM Grizzlies +5 (-110)

SAC Kings -7.5 (-110)

Parlay odds: +1029

DET Pistons ML vs BKN Nets (+210)

I know it might not be the most popular pick, but why not go with the Detroit Pistons tonight? The losing has to stop at some point, tonight’s game makes the most sense for that to happen, as Detroit has now dropped 26 in a row, equaling the single season record held by the 2013-14 Sixers and 2010-11 Cavaliers.

They just played the Nets on Christmas Eve and although they lost, the game was pretty much in the balance mid-way through the 3rd quarter. Brooklyn came out on top eventually, but they haven’t been in the best of forms either losing 6 of their last 8 games. There won’t be a lack of motivation on the Pistons side here, that’s for sure. It’s time for them to finally put an end to this misery with a victory.

MEM Grizzlies +5 vs NO Pelicans (-110)

Getting back Ja Morant from suspension has lifted the Grizzlies to 3 straight wins, but there’s still a long way to go if they want to get back into play-in tournament contention. They play a familiar foe tonight – the New Orleans Pelicans, a team they beat 115-113 in Morant’s first game back from suspension. Ja played well in that game, considering it was his first in 8 months as he finished with 34 points and the game winning bucket.

The Pelicans went into the mini break losing 2 of their last 3 games, both of which were at home. They are just 9-6 SU at the Smoothie King Center, a number that doesn’t exactly fill you with optimism. Zion Williamson’s issues are well documented, I’m just not prepared to trust them against one of the surging teams in the NBA right now. Morant and co. definitely benefited from a 3-day rest in between games, it wouldn’t surprise me if Memphis came out on top here, but let’s back them to keep things close as a slightly safer option.

SAC Kings -7.5 vs POR Trail Blazers (-110)

And finally, to close things out I have the Sacramento Kings beating the Portland Trail Blazers by at least 8 points. Playing a team like the Blazers is exactly what the Kings need right now, after a run of just 1 win in 3 games. They just lost to Minnesota at home, scoring only 98 points which was only the 5th time this season they finished with under 100 points scored.

The Blazers, on the other hand, are struggling with just 1 win in their last 10 games and a run of 3-17 SU in their last 20 at Moda Center. This team has also had issues covering the spread, going just 4-9 ATS in 13 home games. The Kings have also had the upper hand in head-to-head meetings going 6-3 ATS in the last 9 games, plus they’ve also covered in 5 of their last 6 visits to Portland. The discrepancy in talent is just too big here, Sacramento needs to win these types of games in order to stay in the Top 4 in the West. Go with the Kings.
