Kings vs. Mavericks same-game parlay predictions Jan. 27: Bet on Sacramento to win, Doncic to hit threes at +430
Luka Doncic is coming off a historic 73-point game and factors into tonight's same-game parlay.
The pregame narrative: I'm backing Doncic to stay hot from beyond the arc but am still expecting the Sacramento Kings to win. Also, Kevin Huerter is in a good spot to make some triples of his own.

Kings vs. Mavericks same-game parlay
Parlay: Kings moneyline + Doncic over 2.5 threes + Huerter over 2.5 threes (+430)
Kings moneyline (-150): The fact that Dallas only won by five points yesterday tells me all I need to know about this team. The Mavericks have a generational talent on their hands but the surrounding cast isn't anything to write home about.
Kyrie Irving missed the past two games with a thumb injury and is listed as questionable tonight. But even when Irving plays the team is only 15-12 this season.
It will take a full effort to topple Sacramento, which is a league-best 13-7-1 ATS on the road this season. Since the Kings are 3-point favourites this is essentially teasing down their original line.
The Mavericks are also playing their third game in four nights and are on the second leg of a back-to-back. Sacramento is 8-4 with a rest advantage this season.
Other parlay picks
Doncic over 3.5 threes (-175): I think the Kings are going to win but that doesn't mean Luka won't get his licks in.
Doncic's historic game was buoyed by a clinical performance from beyond the arc. He went 8-for-13 from deep and is now shooting 38.1% from 3-point range this season.
He's cleared this line in seven of his past 12 games and the Kings have the second-highest opponent 3-point percentage (39.4%) in the NBA.
Huerter over 2.5 threes (+102): Huerter has been red-hot from beyond the arc and should have a field day tonight.
Sacramento's shooting guard has cleared this mark in three of his past five games and made at least two triples in each of those contests. He's shooting 50.0% from deep in that span.
This is also a juicy matchup for Huerter. The Mavericks allow the second-most 3-pointers per game to opposing shooting guards (3.75), according to Fantasy Pros.
