Sign In
The Boston Celtics might be the betting favorite entering their NBA Finals matchup against the Dallas Mavericks, but the public is firing on the Western Conference champions.
Eighty-four percent of the series tickets at BetMGM are on Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving and the Mavericks. Those 84% of bets represent 69% of the series handle, BetMGM’s John Ewing revealed Thursday morning.
“It has been nothing but Mavericks money since the end of the Western Conference Finals,” Halvor Egeland, senior trader at BetMGM, told Ewing. “The sportsbook will be cheering for the Celtics to win the NBA championship.”
