Our NBA parlay picks for Wednesday, November 4 are the Pistons to beat the 76ers at home, the Hornets to beat the Nets on the road and the Timberwolves to beat the Rockets on the road: three legs, each the bet our prediction for that game makes, paying +1104 together at DraftKings at 17:56 UTC on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.
A parlay pays only if every leg wins. On our numbers this one does that 16.3% of the time, so it loses 83.7% of the time. The price is the reason to take it: +1104 pays as if all three legs win 8.3% of the time.
Every leg on this page comes from our own NBA predictions, never from a pick made for the parlay. A prediction makes a bet when our chance for a team and the market’s chance, with the book’s margin taken out, differ by at least 5 points. A leg also has to hold that gap at the price on offer now, and the parlay takes at most three: the largest gaps when the predictions were published. A game where our page passes is never a leg.
Thunder and Mavericks are also bets at the current price, with a smaller gap, and stay in the table of single bets below.
The NBA parlay for Wednesday
| Leg | Game | Tip | Our call, as published | DraftKings now | Decimal | Prediction |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Philadelphia 76ers at Detroit Pistons | Wed Nov 4, 7:00 pm ET | Pistons -125 | -119 | 1.84 | Our prediction |
| 2 | Charlotte Hornets at Brooklyn Nets | Wed Nov 4, 7:30 pm ET | Hornets -136 | -136 | 1.74 | Our prediction |
| 3 | Minnesota Timberwolves at Houston Rockets | Wed Nov 4, 8:30 pm ET | Timberwolves +279 | +276 | 3.76 | Our prediction |
The combined price is the legs’ decimal prices multiplied: 1.84 × 1.74 × 3.76 = 12.04, which is +1104 in American odds. A $10 stake returns $120.40 if all three legs win, the stake included. One losing leg loses the parlay.
Why each leg is on it
Philadelphia 76ers at Detroit Pistons. When our prediction was published, DraftKings had the Pistons at -125, which with the margin taken out gives them 53.4%. Our number gives them 61.9%, 8.5 points more, against a bar of 5 for a bet. The price opened at -119; it is -119 now, against -125 at publication. At the current prices the gap is 9.7 points.
Charlotte Hornets at Brooklyn Nets. When our prediction was published, DraftKings had the Hornets at -136, which with the margin taken out gives them 55.3%. Our number gives them 63.4%, 8.1 points more, against a bar of 5 for a bet. The price opened at -136, and it has not moved since publication. At the current prices the gap is 8.1 points.
Minnesota Timberwolves at Houston Rockets. When our prediction was published, DraftKings had the Timberwolves at +279, which with the margin taken out gives them 25.4%. Our number gives them 41.5%, 16.1 points more, against a bar of 5 for a bet. The price opened at +279; it is +276 now, against +279 at publication. At the current prices the gap is 16.0 points.
What the margin does to a parlay
Every price carries the book’s margin, and a parlay multiplies the margins along with the prices. At the current DraftKings prices the margin is 4.1% on the Pistons game, 4.1% on the Hornets game and 4.1% on the Timberwolves game. Across the parlay it comes to 12.9%: the price says all three legs win 8.3% of the time, and the same prices with the margin removed say 7.4%. The parlay guide works through how that grows with each leg.
Our case for the parlay is the same as for each leg: our numbers rate every team on it above its price. Multiplied, our 61.9%, 63.4% and 41.5% give 16.3%, which treats the games as independent: one result says nothing about another. A fair price for 16.3% is +514; DraftKings pays +1104. On our numbers that is an expected return of 96.1% of the stake. If our numbers overrate any of these teams, the parlay multiplies that error the same way.
Every bet our NBA predictions make for Wednesday
These are all five bets, the parlay’s legs included, for anyone building a different one. Each is the call its prediction published; the last two numbers are the gap when it was published and at the current price. Adding a leg multiplies the price, the margin and the chance of losing.
