Boardroom’s custom parlay bet at FanDuel Sportsbook zeroes in on three NBA operators aiming to enhance their market values by continuing to beat the odds on the stat sheet.
There’s nothing like a contract year for an NBA player to show what he’s truly worth, but perhaps even more tantalizing is a player who has more time to build his renown before it’s time to jump back onto the open market or negotiate a gigantic extension — and let’s not forget about those who have already secured their first big bag and want to prove to the world that they’re worth every last penny.
On Friday, Boardroom debuts its featured, expert-curated Same Game Parlay bet alongside our friends at FanDuel Sportsbook starring three premium players who stand to increase their respective market values and league-wide statures handsomely if they can continue hitting the overs on their prop bets as part of a spirited postseason run.
We’re calling it the Contract Crossover parlay, and it’s coming in hot for April 21’s Game 3 between the Cleveland Cavaliers and New York Knicks.
Let’s meet our three parlay playmakers, starting with a crafty Cavalier who’s already gone for 50+ in a postseason game twice in his career.
