The 2024 NBA Finals are set to tip-off on Thursday, June 6 at 8:30p.m. ET on ABC between the Dallas Mavericks and Boston Celtics. Many top sports betting sites, such as BetMGM, offer welcome promos for new customers to place a first bet.

You’ll find two different BetMGM bonus code offers of which you can activate one in almost 20 sports betting states.

New York is one of the BetMGM states that is excluded from either promo.

Here are the two offers; we’ll outline how to activate each if you read further:

Earn a 20% match in sports bonus on your first deposit of $10 or more on the platform.

Profit cash from a winning first bet or earn up to $1,500 in bonus bets if your first bet doesn’t win.

Yes, you’ll find a wide variety of markets for Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night. BetMGM often provides a selection of curated same game parlays, odds boosts and exceptional variety with game and player props.

This NBA Finals has some exciting story lines as Kyrie Irving takes on his former Celtics squad. Meanwhile, the Celtics look to finally finish the season with a championship after being the favorites the whole year.

While the NBA Finals will be the largest event on Thursday, any sport qualifies for your first bet using the first bet insurance promo with BetMGM.

The deposit match is one of the few offers you’ll find that doesn’t require a first bet to earn the sports bonus. You’ll need a new account, the bonus code and a $10+ deposit to get started.

However, BetMGM requires you to cash bet 10x the bonus earned in the first 30 days to access any cash winnings in your account. This requirement can be completed across multiple bets as long as you hit that threshold within the time frame.

For example, if I deposited $1,000 I would earn $200 in sports bonus. I’d have seven days to use the sports bonus and 30 days to cash wager a total $2,000 to access any profits in my account.

The alternate offer requires a $10 deposit as well and a cash bet of any size on any market or odds. Let’s say you made a $500 same game parlay on the Dallas Mavs to cover +6.5 and the over 214.5 total points at +265.

You’ll have seven days to use any bonus bets to fund wagers within BetMGM. These can profit cash but can only be used once before disappearing.
