The Brown and Herro 4 Leg Philadelphia Saturday Parlay, by Agent Dime

Four lines from the scorers on both sides. Jaylen Brown's and Joel Embiid's points for Philadelphia, Tyler Herro's points for Milwaukee, and a three from Ryan Rollins.

Dime leaves LeBron James off the ticket while he is questionable with back management. Tyrese Maxey is the best scorer on the floor, but his boards carry a wide gap between bid and ask, so Dime finds the value elsewhere.

The matchups that decide the props

Philadelphia's scoring starts with Tyrese Maxey, 30.0 points a game through two wins after 28.3 last season, and Jaylen Brown, 20.0 points and 8.0 rebounds a night in his first two games as a Sixer after 28.7 points a game for Boston. Joel Embiid adds 18.5 points and 9.0 rebounds, and he plays Saturday before an expected rest day Sunday against Detroit.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. has 22 and 19 points beside him, and Ryan Rollins made 2.5 threes a game last season. The Bucks gave up 128 points in Washington and 132 at home to Chicago on Friday, so Philadelphia's scorers should find room.
