A busy week in the NBA ends with an 8-game slate on Sunday, which includes doubleheaders on ABC and ESPN. The latter ends with the last game of the evening, a confrontation between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Phoenix Suns.
Here is my Same Game Parlay for the festivities, and also be sure to check all OUR NBA Pick.
Suns ML (+185)
Jalen Williams will record more than 25 points (+235)

Part of the value of a Same Game Parlay, of course, is that all its components can be correlated if desired. At the same time, play this are not correlated increases the overall parlay payout. That’s the whole plan here, as Jalen Williams scoring a bunch of points obviously goes against a Phoenix win. But even if that happens, there won’t be reason why the suns can’t finish the job. Let’s go break down each of the 2 legs.
Phoenix Suns ML (+185)
Interestingly, this dates back to Christmas all the Thunder’s losses have come in pairs of 2s. It is RIGHT; for more than 2 months they have followed an initial defeat with another defeat – but I never lost more than 2 times in a row. If the trend continues, OKC expects another setback after falling to San Antonio on Thursday. Yes, this team actually lost at Spurs.
The Suns are playing the rematch of a back-to-back situation and probably be without Devin Booker and Jusuf Nurkic, which is why they are lofty +185 underdogs. However, this gives a lot of value to the home team. More the Suns have been exceptional in back-to-back games this season, winning more than twice as many games as they have lost in such instances. Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal are good enough to overcome the absences of Booker and Nurkic, so let’s go ride with Phoenix.

Jalen Williams will record more than 25 points (+235)
Williams has been on an absolute hot streak lately. The Oklahoma City small forward averaged 22.3 points per game in February – his best monthly output of the season. He twice exceeded the 30-point mark and finished the month scoring 22, 24 and 26 points. Asking him to score at least 25 on Sunday shouldn’t be too much a lot and bumping it up to +235 is definitely a good deal.
Also note that Williams delivered 31 points during the only previous head-to-head clash between the Thunder and Suns in 2023-24 on November 12. The Santa Clara product shot 11 of 16 from the floor, including 3 of 4 from 3-point range, and made 6 of 8 free throw attempts. Given its current form and its previous success against Phoenix, Williams should be in line for another big performance.
