Same-Game Parlay Pick No. 1: Luka Doncic OVER 38.5 PTS + REB
You could take any combination of points, rebounds, and assists for Luka Doncic and attempt to find some semblance of success on this front, but with his scoring so up and down lately as he plays through injury, it's not as much of a surefire bet as some may think.
For points and rebounds, which we're rolling with here, Doncic has only hit the OVER on 38.5 twice against the Thunder, and when he has, it's by the narrowest of margins. In fact, the Most Valuable Player finalist has failed to reach that mark more times during these playoffs (six) than he's gone OVER (five).
The hope here is that with Dallas in a prime position to end this series in its backyard, we're going to see elite-level play out of Doncic, even if that means shouldering more of the load to get there. That could lead to a giant box score at the end of the night.
Same-Game Parlay Pick No. 2: P.J. Washington OVER 2.5 Made 3-Pointers
Dallas' second-leading scorer in P.J. Washington has been a lifesaver for his squad this series with Kyrie Irving taken out of the equation with some stifling Thunder defense. We're taking a 3-pointer prop here for Washington with his 4.2 makes per game versus Oklahoma City at a crisp 47.7 percent, with two of his stronger shooting nights coming at home.
Washington nailed 10 of 23 from 3-point range across Games 3 and 4 with exactly five makes in each contest at 43.5 percent. He connected on five or more six times during the regular season, as well. Surprisingly, the Mavericks are only a combined 5-4 SU when Washington drills that many.
Logic would suggest that the Thunder will continue to follow their blueprint of making Irving as much of an afterthought offensively as possible, which therefore frees up Washington to continue taking a team-high 21 shots at home against them. If his efficiency holds up, this should be an easy dub.
Same-Game Parlay Pick No. 3: Lu Dort OVER 2.5 Made 3-Pointers
Shoutout to all of the oddsmakers who are finally catching on to Lu Dort's 3-point prowess in this series, raising the prop from 1.5 to 2.5 made 3-pointers for Game 6. This leg has been a constant for same-game parlays for this particular matchup, and we've won each time. Now the dynamic changes with the number rising, and that matters in a big way.
If the number had been at 1.5 like it's been, then this would be a no-brainer considering Dort has connected on multiple triples in each game. In order to bank this leg, however, the 25-year-old Montreal native will need to make at least three, and he's only accomplished that once against Dallas and three times this postseason.
Dort's attempts are still strong at 8.3 over his last three appearances, and the night he made three 3-pointers did come on Dallas' home floor. The plus money is calling, so fingers crossed Dort comes through with some clutch shooting because the upside for this SGP is huge if he does.
