NBA Parlay Leg #1: Damian Lillard Over 23.5 Points (-118)
Damian Lillard has been in and out of the lineup this season, as he has played in just 12 games. Furthermore, Lillard was forced to leave two of those games due to injury. In the ten games he started and completed, the Portland Trail Blazers star has scored at least 24 points six times.
In both games, where Lillard returned to action, he fell short of this number. In his second game back from his first injury, Lillard went for 26 points while shooting 50.0% from the field and from three-point range. In his prior meeting with the Denver Nuggets, Lillard finished with 31 points, shooting 62.5% from the field, 50.0% from three-point range, and 87.5% from the free-throw line. For the season, Lillard is averaging 25.8 points per game while shooting 42.3% from the field, 34.7% from three-point range, and 87.8% from the free-throw line. Look for Lillard to once again take advantage of Denver's poor defense by finishing with at least 24 points.

NBA Parlay Leg #3: Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs Over 230 Points (-112)
Unlike the two teams above, the Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs play little to no defense.

While neither team has been particularly strong on the offensive end, neither side will face much defensive resistance.
