Thunder vs Celtics Free NBA Parlay Picks

• Leg 1: Celtics -3

The Celtics have rattled off five consecutive wins to boost their lead atop the Atlantic Division standings, which is why NBA spreads have them at -3. They scored wins over the likes of the Lakers, Nuggets, and 76ers, with the win over Denver being a good form guide. They won 110-103, and the Thunder are coming off a 140-127 loss to the Nuggets at home. That wasn’t a good performance, so we’re confidently taking the home side to cover the spread.

• Leg 2: Over 228.5 Points

There were only 197 points in the first meeting, per Thunder vs Celtics stats, with Oklahoma City winning 105-92 at home. However, we expect a different result and a completely different scoreline. There should be plenty of points flowing at TD Garden on Wednesday, especially with the Thunder allowing 140 points against the Nuggets.

It’s a low enough line for bettors to take at our BetUS sportsbook, so include it in NBA parlays.

• Leg 3: Jaylen Brown Over 24.5 Points (-114)

Our top NBA player prop pick for Thunder vs Celtics is Jaylen Brown over 24.5 points. There is a chance Jayson Tatum isn’t playing, and if that’s the case, expect Brown to take over the offense. They’re already without Kristaps Porzingis, so although the Celtics could be shorthanded, they’re good enough to win at home. That’s mostly because Brown has scored 57 points in his last two games and he’s the player to bet on.

• Leg 4: Double Result—Boston/Boston

Our best NBA prop is the Celtics to lead at halftime and full-time. It pays +100 for the double result, and the Celtics are always tough to get past at halftime. They come out strong defensively, so the likes of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will need to have a good shooting night to see the Thunder go close. We’re backing Boston to lead at halftime and get even stronger with 2nd half-NBA lines.
