The Boston Celtics will hope to force Game 7 when playing host to the Golden State Warriors for Game 6 on Thursday. We offer up our top same-game parlay picks for Game 6 of the NBA Finals between the Warriors and Celtics.

Game 6 of the NBA Finals takes place in Boston on Thursday. Boston will aim to level the series at 3-3 on Thursday night at home, and with that, I’m expecting big games out of a couple of Celtics stars.

In the same vein, I’m taking a shot on an Under on a very hot commodity for the Warriors. We'll sell high and hope to profit on a same-game parlay. Let’s get into some bets.

Here are my top same-game parlay picks for Game 6 of the NBA Finals between the Celtics and Warriors (odds via DraftKings Sportsbook).

Warriors vs. Celtics Same Game Parlay Picks

Jayson Tatum 40-plus points, rebounds, and assists (-180)Marcus Smart 3-plus 3-pointers made (-105)Andrew Wiggins Under 17.5 points (+100)

NBA Finals Game 6 Same Game Parlay

Tatum 40-plus points, rebounds, and assists (-180)

It’s an elimination game, which means it’s once again time to bet on Celtics forward Jayson Tatum.

The Celtics star has made a habit of going off with the team’s back against the wall, averaging 30.1 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 6.7 assists in his last seven elimination games, and has averaged 47.5 total points, rebounds, and assists in his last two such games. He’s also gone over 42.5 points, rebounds, and assists in all but one of his last seven elimination games.

Tatum has also piled up 21 rebounds across his last two games and has averaged seven assists per game in the series. Any way you slice it, he’s piled up numbers in the box score despite fleeting scoring numbers. He’ll cash this.

Smart 3-plus 3-pointers (-105)

I’ll continue to bet on Celtics guard Marcus Smart in these Finals with the inkling that his moment is coming.

It’s not just me who has this feeling, you can look at the usage he’s had in this series. He’s averaged 6.4 3-point attempts per game against the Warriors, hitting 40.6%. In four of five games, he has put up six or more attempts from deep. He’s an excellent shooter, and he’s finding himself open time and time again with the Golden State defense focusing on guard Jaylen Brown and Tatum.

Smart has now cashed Over 2.5 threes in three consecutive games and there is not an end in sight. This is a smart same-game parlay piece.

Wiggins Under 17.5 points (+100)

Yes, Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins has averaged 18.4 points per game in this series, but this is an unsustainable mark. Not only has the Under on this line cashed in two of the five games and in 11 of the 16 games the Warriors played prior to this series, but Wiggins is also shooting at a disastrous clip from 3-point range. As a result, he is being forced into a ton of shots from downtown by the Celtics.

Wiggins was a man possessed in Game 5, but in every other game, he’s struggled to score in bunches inside. It’s only with a couple of threes tossed in that he’s been able to just sneak above 17.5 points, and again that is unsustainable given how badly he has shot from outside in the series (and in the playoffs, hitting 32.3%).

The Celtics defense is brilliant and won’t allow Wiggins much inside in a replay of the first four games of the series.
