The Denver Nuggets take on the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 6 of their NBA Playoffs series on Thursday, May 15. Tip-off is set for 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
The Thunder enter as -4.5 favorites with the over/under sitting at 217.5.
However, despite their status as underdogs, I have a same-game parlay for Thursday's matchup focusing on the Nuggets and a big game out of point guard Jamal Murray.
Let's dive into my Nuggets vs. Thunder parlay and NBA picks for Thursday, May 15.
Nuggets vs Thunder Parlay for Thursday, May 15

We'll trust the home team to extend the series tonight.
This series has been back and forth, and I fully expect Denver to bounce back after a tough loss in Game 5.
I anticipate a tight back-and-forth contest tonight, which will favor the underdog. Denver is a veteran team with tons of experience in high-leverage games.
Plus, the Nuggets posted a 26-15 record at home this season.
Pick: Nuggets +4.5
Murray has been the definition of "clutch" in the postseason.
The former Kentucky standout has stepped up in big moments throughout his career. Murray has cashed this prop in two of his last three games.
The veteran will log north of 40 minutes in this must-win game tonight, which bodes well for this prop.
Pick: Jamal Murray Over 21.5 Points
