The NBA Finals between the Pacers and the Thunder continue Thursday with Game 6 in Indiana. The Thunder lead this series 3-2 and can clinch the NBA title with a win in Game 6. On DraftKings Sportsbook, the Thunder are favored by 6.5 points for Game 6 and this contest carries a total of 221.5 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Myles Turner prop bet to consider from this contest.

Best Myles Turner Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Myles Turner U 13.5 Points (-110)

The Thunder have given Turner issues this season. The center has faced Oklahoma City’s league-best defense six times and is only averaging 12.7 PPG in these matchups. Turner has stayed under 13.5 points in four of these six games and he has especially had problems when Chet Holmgren has defended him in these NBA Finals. No player in these playoffs has guarded Turner more than Holmgren, and in the 28 minutes Turner has been defended by the young big man, Turner is shooting just 33.3% from the field and 15.4% on three pointers.

Oklahoma City is certainly well aware of Holmgren’s elite ability to slow down Turner, and Holmgren should continue to be Turner’s primary defender whenever he is on the floor in Game 6. 13.5 points is just too high of a line for Turner in this difficult matchup and he is a strong bet to remain under it on Thursday.
