Placing a parlay bet with these three picks at DraftKings offers a +604 payout (risk $100 to win $604, odds subject to change).
Knicks (-2.5) vs. Pistons (-108)
The Knicks have stumbled in their last three games but held a strong 15-3 record before that, including an NBA Cup Finals victory over the Spurs. New York is missing Josh Hart (ankle) and Landry Shamet (shoulder), but neither Karl-Anthony Towns nor Mitchell Robinson is expected to play. The Knicks rank fourth in offense with 120.6 points per game and beat the Pistons in six playoff games last year, including a perfect 3-0 run in Detroit. The model predicts a 56% chance the Knicks will cover the spread. New users betting on the Knicks at DraftKings can get $300 in bonus bets if their first $5 bet wins.
Rangers (-118) vs. Mammoth
Though not outstanding at home, the Rangers are competitive with Utah. SportsLine expert Matt Severance highlights New York’s star goalie, Igor Shesterkin, who has propelled the team to a 6-1-1 record and leads in allowing one or fewer goals over eight games this season after winning the Winter Classic in Miami. Support the Rangers on DraftKings and bag $300 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet is a winner.
Clippers (-102) vs. Warriors
After a tough 146-115 loss against the Celtics, the Clippers had previously won six straight games against teams like the Pistons, Lakers, and Rockets. Despite a rough season start, the Clippers are currently 5-1 at home in their last six games and still have key players James Harden and Kawhi Leonard, with Leonard averaging 38.8 points in the last four games. The Warriors have struggled on the road with a 2-3 record in their last five away games. The model favors the Clippers with a 64% win probability, offering excellent value near even-money odds. Bet on the Clippers with DraftKings and new users may receive $300 in bonus bets if their initial $5 bet wins.
