Same-Game Parlay Pick No. 1: Phoenix Suns ML
The Suns have lost three of their last four games when favored by oddsmakers to win on the road. Even though the spread is air tight, the Pelicans are also just 5-6 SU when underdogs in their backyard with four losses in their last five games under those circumstances.
There's something to be said about urgency with just a few weeks of action remaining. This game presents a golden opportunity for Phoenix to gain ground and potentially claw its way out of the play-in tournament bracket. A defeat to New Orleans could seal its fate with so few games left, even though they do play each other one more time on April 7.
The spread has this matchup being a coin flip, and with the Suns having beaten the Pelicans already by double digits, they feel like the safer bet at this time.
Same-Game Parlay Pick No. 2: Devin Booker OVER 25.5 Points
Devin Booker scored 52 points on 30 shots against the Pelicans back on Jan. 19, which was his second-strongest offensive showing of the 2023-24 campaign.
His latest 14-point effort against the Oklahoma City Thunder was his fourth-worst scoring night of the season, though, attributed largely to Phoenix being blown out and never truly being in the game.
While Booker has scored fewer than 20 points in each of his last two games, which is the first time he's done that all year, a return to form feels in store against a team in New Orleans he just torched not all that long ago.
Same-Game Parlay Pick: Herb Jones OVER 11.5 Points
Herb Jones is New Orleans' defensive ace, and tends to fall down the pecking order offensively more often than not behind the likes of Zion Williamson, CJ McCollum, Trey Murphy, and a healthy Brandon Ingram.
With Ingram out, though, a few more opportunities open up for a player like Jones to contribute on that front. He just scored 18 points across 40 minutes during a loss to the Boston Celtics on Saturday, which was his highest-scoring game in over a month.
With the Suns stacked to the brim with weapons, Jones should see another healthy chunk of minutes simply as a means to thwart their efforts. He could stumble his way to 12 points or more through usage alone, which he's done in two of his last three outings.
