Raptors vs. Cavaliers same-game parlay picks

  • Cavaliers -8.5
  • Over 210.5
  • Donovan Mitchell Over 4.5 assists

Same-game parlay odds: +461

Cavaliers -8.5

As noted earlier, the home team has won each of the first six games of this series. Cleveland won Games 1 and 2 by 13 and 10 points, respectively, before winning Game 5 by five points. The model likes the Cavs to win outright here and also cover this spread. The Cavs cover in well over 50% of model simulations.

Over 210.5

This is an interesting total for Game 7 as these teams have had 211 combined points or more in all but one of their first six games this series. That may be a big reason why the model is slamming the Over here, as the Over hits in 67.5% of simulations. 

Donovan Mitchell 4.5 assists

Mitchell has had a busy series and, as always, has been a very important player for the Cavs. He has not been very busy, however, in the assists department, averaging just 3.33 per game and going Over 4.5 assists just once this series back in Game 2. The model likes Mitchell to go Over this line, though, with a projection of 5.5 assists at plus money.
