Mavs vs Clippers Same-Game Parlay for Game 5


Norman Powell Over 11.5 Points
PJ Washington Over 10.5 Points
Under 208.5
Odds: +750 at DraftKings (Bet $10 to win $85 total)

Mavs vs Clippers Same Game Parlay Leg 1: Norman Powell Over 11.5 Points (-115)

The sixth man for the Clippers could see some real work tonight in Game 5 against the Mavericks. Our own PropBetGuy expects him to play 30-plus minutes and loves Powell to go over his point total:

“Powell cleared this line in 36-of-47 games this regular season when playing at least 26 minutes.”

Mavs vs Clippers Same-Game Parlay Leg 2: PJ Washington Over 10.5 Points (-130)

Although Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving have been putting on a show offensively in the playoffs, the Mavs will likely need scoring contributions outside this duo to pick up the win in Los Angeles.

If that’s the case, Bryan Fonseca says we should target PJ Washington:

“Another player to watch is PJ Washington. He's posted 11, 18, 10 and 10 points in the four games in this series and has often been a distant No. 3 option behind Doncic and Kyrie Irving. He's also posted exactly 10 field goal attempts in all but one game — Game 4 when he simply had nine.”

Mavs vs Clippers Same-Game Parlay Leg 3: Under 208.5 (-110)

Even in a game featuring Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving, James Harden and Paul George, scoring can be tough to come by. Teams tend to tighten up defensively in pivotal Game 5s with offensive sets taking longer to unfold.

Andrew O’Connor-Watts unearthed a fantastic trend that points toward an under in this one:

“In games where the home team is the underdog, the under is 205-166-3 since 2005, including 7-1 this season if we include the Play-In Tournament. My projections put this in the low 200s, and I like it down to 206.

Disclaimer: Parlays have a significantly lower chance of winning compared to betting each leg of the Same-Game Parlay on its own. Those percentages only decrease with the more legs you add to the parlay. Keep your expectations in check, and if you bet on these, please do so responsibly for recreation.
