NBA Utah Jazz vs LA Lakers same game parlay picks: Jordan Clarkson lights up his old team at +913 odds

With 3 wins from 3 Games, the LA Lakers have an opportunity to clinch the number 1 spot in Group A of the In-Season Tournament if they beat the Utah Jazz at home. They’ll attempt to do so on tonight on TNT, starting from 10 pm ET. I’ve prepared a Same Game Parlay which if you can find below.

Jordan Clarkson to Score 30+ Points (+390)

Austin Reaves Over 1.5 Made Threes (+140)

Same Game Parlay odds: +913

Jordan Clarkson to Score 30+ Points (+390)

The former Laker has been a problem for opposing defenses in his last 5 games averaging 29.6 points a night. Since he’s a volume shooter, one might assume he has just been chucking it up, but Clarkson has actually been very efficient during this stretch. He’s attempting 22 shots per game and converting on almost 51% of them. He’s also shooting close to 40% from three-point land (that number would have been a lot higher if it wasn’t for his 1-for-6 performance vs Phoenix), so when you just look at the raw numbers this bet actually makes a lot of sense, especially since we’re getting it at +390 odds. In head-to-head games against the Lakers he’s put up 19, 20 and 22 points in the last 3 played, upping his production every single time. The Jazz will need max effort from their guys to stand a chance tonight, so I expect a lot of points here and Clarkson to lead the scoring.

Austin Reaves Over 1.5 Made Threes (+140)

The Lakers too should have a high scoring game, that’s just how the Jazz play this season. I’m looking at Austin Reaves to have a solid contribution here. He has slowly stabilized his production in the month of November, upping his points per game by 4.7 compared to October, while also shooting almost 17% better from the field and 15% better from deep. He’s cleared this line 6 times in his last 9 outings, which is also encouraging. Against the Jazz he finished with 28 and 12 points in the last 2 meetings, connecting on 4 and 3 threes respectively. Utah has been one of the worst teams in the league at defending the three-ball in their last 3 games allowing teams to shoot 41.6%. Only 5 teams in the entire league produced worse results than that during the stretch, so I’m confident Reaves can take full advantage here.
