Top NBA picks for Tuesday, March 3

After simulating every game 10,000 times, the model is backing the Under 227.5 points in the Thunder vs. Bulls game, which covers nearly 60% of the time. The game tips off at 8 p.m. ET. OKC will be without several players, including Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdominal), Jalen Williams (hamstring) and Ajay Mitchell (abdomen). The Under has hit in two of the last three meetings between the teams.

Oklahoma City is averaging 119.1 points per game, while Chicago averages 115.8. With the injury situation for the Thunder, Chet Holmgren will lead the OKC offense. In 54 games, all starts, he is averaging 17.2 points, nine rebounds, two blocks and 1.7 assists. Over his last 10 games, however, he is averaging just 14.7 points. He averages just 16.8 points on the road.

The model is projecting seven Thunder players to score in double-figures, including Holmgren with 22.9 projected points. Chicago is projected to have five players score 11.5 points or more, led by Matas Buzelis' 20.7 points. The teams are projected to combine for 222 points, as the Under is projected to cover in nearly 60% of simulations. See which other NBA parlay picks to make here.
