NBA Parlay and Picks Tuesday April 2: Cavaliers, Clippers Top Bets
We kicked off our week with a bust of our NBA parlay after Jalen Duren exited the game in the first quarter after losing a tooth. Still, our NBA predictions have been on point, so let’s hope we don’t get in the mouth again on Tuesday. It’s often difficult to weed out the top spots when the schedule has so many games for our NBA picks and parlay bets. On Tuesday night, we have nine games to sift through.
I will stick with what has worked and build our best NBA parlay today using NBA ATS picks and player props. I’ve researched all the NBA betting odds and am loading up a three-leg parlay. Let’s discuss the NBA’s best bets for Tuesday.

Tuesday NBA Parlay Picks
1. NBA Parlay Pick: Cavaliers C Jarrett Allen to Record a Double-Double (-197)
One of the NBA best bets tonight is for the Cleveland Cavaliers to roll the Utah Jazz. Jarrett Allen, a center with another advantageous matchup on Tuesday night, is one of the most underrated players in the NBA and should smash again tonight. The Utah Jazz have been a solid rebounding team, but they lack the size and talent tonight to keep Allen off the glass.
The Jazz are without John Collins and Lauri Markkanen tonight. Over the last two weeks, Utah has allowed the 10th-most rebounds and is in the bottom 10 in points in the paint allowed. Allen has a double-double in 37 of 68 healthy games (54%) and has scored in double digits in 63 of 68 healthy games. Utah is allowing the fourth-most points per game to opposing centers. This could get sweaty, but I’m confident he will get this done for us.
2. NBA Parlay Pick: Cavaliers -12 at Jazz
As I mentioned, the Cavaliers are in a smash spot on the road in Utah. I don’t typically like laying double-digits on the road, but I’m willing to make an exception tonight. Donovan Mitchell and the Cavaliers have been dealing with injuries since the All-Star break but are finally getting healthy. Cleveland is coming off of a bad loss in Denver, and Mitchell voiced his frustrations after the loss.
Cleveland should come into this game motivated to right the ship. The Cavaliers have have gone just 3-7 ATS over their previous 10 games. However, they are 16-11-2 ATS after a loss. Cleveland has had a tough schedule and gets a cupcake matchup against the Jazz, who are without three of their top guys in John Collins, Lauri Markkanen and Jordan Clarkson. Cleveland should take out some frustrations on Utah in this get-right spot, and Mitchell should light it up in this game against his former squad.
3. NBA Parlay Pick: Clippers (-125) at Kings
The Clippers and Kings are set up for a late-night West Coast battle. The Clippers are difficult to trust coming home from an East Coast road trip, but the Kings are struggling with injuries at the wrong time. Sacramento recently lost Kevin Huerter for the season, and the team announced Malik Monk, the favorite for Sixth Man of the Year, will miss time with a sprained MCL.
The Kings have been strong at home this season, but the Clippers are 25-14 straight up on the road. The Clippers are playing for a top-four seed in the standings, and they want to secure at least one playoff series with home-court advantage. The Clippers are the better team and are healthy. I’m trusting them with our third leg.
