NBA Final Game 6 2024/2025 Expert Tips and Best Bets | June 20

Just one victory now separates the Oklahoma City Thunder from the NBA title. They have long been the title favourites, and they now have the chance to prove they were the correct choice. We think they will do so, winning in Indiana in a game that goes under 221.5 total points in part thanks to two or more steals from Alex Caruso.

Thunder ML | $1.40 @ Betfocus

Oklahoma City is on the precipice of cementing themselves as one of the greatest teams in NBA history. A victory in Indiana today and they wouldn’t be able to be left out of those conversations. In game five they were finally able to win back-to-back games against the Pacers and take their first series lead of the NBA Finals. Tyrese Haliburton’s health is in question heading into game six, and without Haliburton at his best, it will be very tough for Indiana to deal with the Thunder, as we saw in game five. At $1.40 on Betfocus, we like OKC to win today and capture the NBA Championship.

Total Points U221.5 | $1.90 @ Betright

Both Oklahoma City and Indiana have executed their defensive gameplans brilliantly for the majority of this series. Although only two of the five games thus far have gone under 221.5, we think game six will. Elimination games are refereed differently, the whistles go away as officials tend to let the players decide the series. With how aggressive and swarming these defenses can already be coupled with them likely getting away with some more physicality, we believe a low scoring game is in order. Under 221.5 total points is at $1.90 on Betright, and that’s a pick we like.

Alex Caruso 2+ Steals | $1.62 @ PlayUp

Alex Caruso has played massive minutes for the OKC Thunder in the NBA Finals. His aggressive defense and work ethic have been a key cog for the Thunder both offensively and defensively. He has cranked that defense up to even another level over the past three games, registering 2, 5, and 4 steals. With the ability to be more aggressive in an elimination game, and with his side one game away from the title, we like Caruso to once again grab 2+ steals. NBA betting sites are offering solid odds for this pick and at $1.62 on PlayUp, it’s certainly something we can get behind.
