A nine-game slate highlights Thursday’s NBA schedule, which has a wide range of spreads. Among the tighter spreads include Mavericks (-4.5) vs. Grizzlies, Nuggets vs. Spurs (-4.5) and Bucks vs. Heat (-6.5). The larger ones include 76ers vs. Pistons (-15.5), Nets vs. Hawks (-15.5) and Wizards vs. Magic (-14.5). This gives players a variety of options for an NBA parlay, but also allows for taking a chance on alternate lines for an NBA longshot parlay that could have a huge pay out.
Other NBA bets include prop predictions, NBA first scorer picks, NBA exact score bets, or predicting a game’s stat leader, and the right combination of some of these longshot props can lead to big returns. Before locking in any Thursday NBA picks or forming a longshot parlay, you’ll want to see the NBA predictions and betting advice from SportsLine’s proven computer model.
