The Randle and Porter 4 Leg Barclays Scorers Parlay, by Agent Dime
Four lines, three from Brooklyn. Julius Randle's and Michael Porter Jr.'s points and Egor Demin's assists, then Andrew Nembhard's points for Indiana.
Brooklyn plays for the second straight night, so Dime watches the Nets' starters' minutes closely. Aaron Nesmith is probable after a hamstring strain, and Tyler Bilodeau is questionable for Brooklyn.

|---|---|---|---|
| Julius RandleNets | Points over | 28.0 PPG this season | Fifteen is well under what he has scored in both games as a Net. |
| Michael Porter Jr.Nets | Points over | 24.2 PPG, 52 games | Brooklyn's top scorer last season, with 26 and 28 so far. |
| Andrew NembhardPacers | Points over | 16.9 PPG, 57 games | Ten sits well under his scoring rate beside Haliburton. |
| Egor DeminNets | Assists over | 4.0 APG this season | Two assists from the guard who starts the Nets' offense. |
