A nine-game slate highlights Thursday's NBA schedule, which has a wide range of spreads. Among the tighter spreads include Mavericks (-4.5) vs. Grizzlies, Nuggets vs. Spurs (-5.5) and Bucks vs. Heat (-6.5). The larger ones include 76ers vs. Pistons (-15.5), Nets vs. Hawks (-15.5) and Wizards vs. Magic (-14.5). This gives players a variety of options for an NBA parlay, but also allows for taking a chance on alternate lines for an NBA longshot parlay that could have a huge pay out. Favorites of 15.5 points or more are 24-1 straight up this season, but you could notch quite the return if the underdog prevails for the second time, with you backing it in NBA bets.
Besides the variety of lines, one could also seek out NBA props, first scorer predictions and winning bands to find NBA picks with plus-money payouts. These can be wagered on individually or strung together in a basketball longshot parlay for a huge return.
