We've pieced together a ticket with +365 odds for tonight’s NBA parlay picks.

Injuries dominate Tuesday's NBA card. Stars like Jimmy Butler, Nikola Jokic, Bradley Beal, James Harden, and Deandre Ayton have been listed as either out or questionable.

Keep a close eye on the injury reports as tipoffs approach. While I would consider placing this parlay now, don't exposure yourself to a lot of risk in case markets flip on a tweet.

Here are our top NBA parlay picks for Tuesday (Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook, and pick confidence is based on a one-to-five star scale).

Top NBA Parlay Predictions

Heat-Raptors Over 210.5 (-110)

Even though I'm unsure who will do most of the scoring for Miami, I remain relatively confident in this play. A pair of significant trends are colliding.

First, the Heat lost to the Boston Celtics on Monday, and they won’t get much time to right the ship before Tuesday's contest. Miami has struggled defensively while on the wrong end of back-to-back sets in 2021-22, with the Over going 7-1. The Over is also 11-7 when the Heat play after a loss.

Secondly, the Raptors are at home, and the Over has gone 15-10 during their games in Toronto. The Over is also 14-10 after the Raptors win, and they defeated the Atlanta Hawks on Monday.

The efficiency metrics also support this play. These teams combine to score 216.4 points per 100 possessions while allowing 211.6 points. The two clubs play at a slow pace, but the miscues likely to result as the Heat play back-to-back games could lead to a few additional possessions.

Nuggets-Timberwolves Under 230 (-110)

A handful of interesting trends and injury news led me to make this pick, but there's some mathematical support too.

Jokic might not play for the Nuggets. Even if he does suit up, an injury will likely limit the star center. That could cause huge offensive problems for Denver, as Jokic ranks 13th in usage rate among all players with 1,000-plus minutes played. The over has hit less frequently when the Nuggets are on the road, too.

Also, most of the Timberwolves' games have gone Over this year, but their home-away splits tell a different story. They've compiled a 19-7 Over record on the road, but the Over is just 10-14 when Minnesota is at home.

The efficiency metrics point to some value here as well. These teams combine for 216.1 points scored and 213.1 points allowed per 100 possessions. Minnesota ranks in the top five in pace, but Denver ranks 20th. Even a handful of extra chances wouldn’t be enough to cash the Over.

Bulls ML (-400)

The Chicago Bulls suffered an embarrassing 19-point loss to the Orlando Magic this past Sunday, despite getting 41 points from DeMar DeRozan. But expect them to get their revenge on Tuesday.

The Magic didn’t need to deal with Zach LaVine during the last meeting, and the star guard should help Chicago take care of business now. The Bulls have gone 18-6 in Chicago this year, giving them the NBA’s fourth-best home record. Meanwhile, the Magic are just 6-22 on the road.

Of course, sportsbooks aren’t giving you much value with this line. Fortunately, I think the books are giving us a bit more of a deal after the Magic's recent victory over Chicago. There's still slight value relative to this line’s implied odds of 80%, and we’ll ride it here.

Combined Odds: Heat-Raptors Over 210.5 (-110) + Nuggets-Timberwolves Under 230 (-105) + Magic vs. Bulls (-400) = +365.
