Peter's Primetime Parlay: Timberwolves vs. Warriors

We’re into the third day of Peter’s Primetime Parlay, and I don’t know about all of you guys, but I’m tired of losing by one leg. 

Tuesday’s edition lost when Steph Curry failed to crack 20 points, and Wednesday’s edition fell short when Julius Randle grabbed fewer than seven rebounds for just the seventh time this season. 

Brutal. 

However, that’s not stopping me from making a wager on this Golden State Warriors-Minnesota Timberwolves game tonight. 

Let’s break down this same-game parlay with all odds via WynnBET: 

Best Same-Game Parlay Picks for Timberwolves vs. Warriors (+235 Odds)

• Otto Porter Jr. 12+ Points and Rebounds
• Klay Thompson 12+ Points
• D’Angelo Russell 20+ Points, Rebounds and Assists
• Minnesota Timberwolves-Golden State Warriors UNDER 229.5 

Otto Porter Jr. 12+ Points and Rebounds

Otto Porter Jr. has been huge for the Warriors since Draymond Green went down, and he’s started five of the team’s last six games. 

Here’s a look at his points and rebounds in those five games:

• Jan. 14 vs. Chicago: 9 points, 7 rebounds
• Jan 16 vs. Minnesota: 12 points, 9 rebounds
• Jan. 21 vs. Houston: 13 points, 7 rebounds
• Jan. 23 vs. Utah: 13 points, 8 rebounds
• Jan. 25 vs. Dallas: 12 points, 6 rebounds

Porter Jr. is also averaging 8.4 points and 5.3 rebounds per game this season, so with extended minutes I think he can hit this prop with ease. 

Klay Thompson 12+ Points

Klay Thompson is starting to look like his old self, and with Steve Kerr changing his rotation to have him play more minutes, and earlier in the second quarter, Thompson delivered against Dallas. 

He shot 6-for-12 from the field, tallying 15 points in 25:38 of game time. Klay is averaging 14.7 points per game, and he’s put up 12-plus in all but one game since returning. I love that his volume is strong too (14 shots per game), so I’ll back him to stay hot tonight. 

D’Angelo Russell 20+ Points, Rebounds and Assists

D’Angelo Russell has been balling as of late, averaging 19.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game over his last 16 games. 

In that stretch, he has cleared 20-plus points, rebounds and assists in all but one game. He even did it against Golden State on Jan. 16 despite scoring just seven points. 

This is one of the more confident picks I’ve had all season in a parlay bet. 

Minnesota Timberwolves-Golden State Warriors UNDER 229.5

If you’ve gotten a chance to look at my NBA Best Bets column, you’ll see that I’m backing the under in this game. 

The Wolves have been a great over team, in fact the best in the NBA, on the road this season, but Golden State is equally as good of an under team at home. 

I can’t get all the way to this number, especially since the Warriors have gone under 229.5 combined points in 11 of their last 13, and one of the games the over hit, it went to overtime. 

This is definitely the play I’ll be sweating tonight, but I’m riding and dying with my under pick for this game.
