- The Los Angeles Lakers are 2-point favorites and -130 on the moneyline to force a Game 7.
- The Phoenix Suns come back with odds of +110 as the betting underdogs as they look to close out the series.
- The Under of 207 points is slightly favored as three games in this series have failed to surpass 200 points.
LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Lakers will host the Phoenix Suns as slight favorites on Thursday in Game 6.
Phoenix holds a 3-2 series lead and will be looking to close out the series as the underdogs.
Will Los Angeles Force Game 7?
Whether the Lakers can win on Thursday and force a Game 7 largely rests on the shoulders of Anthony Davis. Davis’s status is uncertain for Game 6, but will likely play due to the fact that Los Angeles is on the brink of elimination.
If he is not cleared to play, online sportsbooks may shift their odds in the Suns’ favor as LeBron James has looked unable to lead the team to wins without AD.
Given the number of question marks surrounding the Lakers, the Phoenix moneyline may actually be the safer bet despite being the underdog.
Lakers vs Suns Moneyline Odds
- Los Angeles Lakers -130
- Phoenix Suns +110
If any NBA bettors want a bit of a safer play, the Suns are getting two points on the spread, giving a little extra room for error.
Over or Under 207 Points?
This has been a very low-scoring series thus far. Three of the five games have had 200 or fewer points with only one game having more than 207 points.

The Lakers allowed the second-fewest points per game in the regular season while the Suns allowed the seventh-fewest. There’s no reason to believe that this game will be any different from the previous games, meaning the Under might be the best play on the total.

- Over 207 -105
- Under 207 -115
Best Prop Bets For Game 6
There’s a couple of prop bets that carry some value and here we’ll highlight a couple of the most interesting ones.
LeBron James Under 48.5 Pts+Reb+Ast (-120)
This is a number that James hasn’t since the middle of March and while the Lakers need a big game from him, it just seems very high considering his recent play.
DeAndre Ayton Over 14.5 Points (-120)
Ayton had at least 14 points in in the first four games of the series with the lone exception being the 30+ blowout in Game 5 where he only took three shots. He is shooting over 78% from the field this series and should get enough opportunities to hit this number again in Game 6.
How To Watch
Thursday’s game will start at 10:30 p.m. EST and will be aired on TNT.
