NBA Player Props Today – 6/6/24 DraftKings Pick6

The NBA Finals kickoff on Thursday at 8:30 PM ET with the Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks facing off and there is value all across the board with the NBA Player Props Draftkings Pick6. 

Before we look at who should be in your Pick6 lineup, let’s go over a reminder about how the contest works. 

The goal for participants is to make more correct picks than the other participants in each contest. Winning entries receive a share of the available prizes. In Pick6, participants can build lineups of between 2 and 6 players and comPete against participants with the same lineup size. The more picks you include in a lineup, the higher a payout could be.

Derrick Jones Jr Under 0.5 Blocks

Mavericks small forward Derrick Jones Jr isn’t going to find much success shot blocking in this Game. In Jones last Game he had one shot blocked, but that was the only block he had during the series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. In four of the last five Games, Jones has failed to block a shot and I will take my chances on something that is hitting at an 80 percent clip. Back Jones to finish under 0.5 blocks. 

Derrick Lively II Over 8.5 Points

With so much attention on Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, it opens up the scoring for players like Derrick Lively II. In the last series against the Timberwolves, Lively didn’t miss a shot and in Game 5 he finished with nine points. Lively is going to have some easy dunks here, and he will go over 8.5 points here. 

Kristaps Porzingis Under 15.5 Points

Kristaps Porzingis is expected to return from injury but it’s unclear if he’s going to be 100 percent, and even if he is, I don’t expect him to have a huge scoring Game. With Porzingis out, there has been more scoring from others like Derrick White, and those players are going to continue the offensive success. Back Porzingas to finish under 15.5 points.

Jayson Tatum Over 27.5 Points

I really don’t trust the Mavericks defense, especially against Tatum this series, and he’s going to light up the scoreboard. If you are looking for a series prop, I actually really like Tatum to be the top scorer in this series, and that will start with him having a huge game here. Back Tatum over 27.5 points.
