We have NBA picks and predictions for Saturday, June 6th, which features Game 2 of the NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks, where the Spurs are favourites to tie the series at 1-1.

Our picks include a best bet and NBA same game multi, and we’re looking forward to the NBA action this week.

The Knicks were the better team in Game 1, and they were helped by Jalen Brunson showing why he’s the best fourth-quarter player in the NBA. However, when the Spurs lost to the Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, they always bounced back with a big effort.

There wasn’t much between the Spurs and Knicks on Thursday, and we thought the Spurs played well enough to win. They just didn’t shoot well in the fourth quarter, and Victor Wenbamyama was well-guarded by a tough Knicks defence.

Things can turn on a dime in the NBA Finals, and as the market suggests, the Spurs are set to tie up the series at 1-1. They have a young team, and they’re good at putting losses behind them, so they should make the necessary adjustments.

Brunson picked up a couple of injuries in Game 1, and although he came back to have a huge performance, those niggling injuries could take their toll on Saturday.

We’re backing the Spurs to cover the –6.5 spread in a breakout performance.

Spurs vs. Knicks SGM

Spurs –6.5, Victor Wembanyama Over 27.5 Points, De’Aaron Fox Over 14.5 Points, Over 214.5 Points @ $8.70

Despite not having his best game, Wemby still had 26 points in Game 1. That bodes well for a big showing on Saturday, and he should score over 27.5 points. He took some time to get going, but he started to play better in the second half. Over 27.5 is a good NBA SGM pick.

Pressure goes on De’Aaron Fox to have a big game for the Spurs. He has been criticised for being their highest paid player and scoring only seven points. He has had some injury concerns, but his experience can’t go unnoticed. He should have a big bounce back performance, so include over 14.5 points in NBA multi bets.

We have the Spurs winning 113-104, so over 214.5 points is another good addition to multis.
