The Golden State Warriors are the favorites in the NBA Finals over a Boston Celtics team looking to make underdog history.
Caesars Sportsbook installed the Warriors as -160 favorites over the Celtics (+140) in an intriguing best-of-seven series that tips off Thursday in San Francisco. Golden State opened as a 3-point favorite in Game 1.
The Warriors entered the season at 10-1 to win the championship at Caesars Sportsbook and were among the title favorites throughout the year. They knocked off the Dallas Mavericks in five games to reach their sixth NBA Finals in the past eight years, a feat accomplished by only three other NBA franchises: the Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Lakers and the Celtics.
