Over in 6/L8 vs the Pelicans (with JoVal) - both misses at 25. It’s a very tough matchup for Murray (Herb Jones), and MPJ is incredibly inconsistent. Jokic’s matchup is the one the Nuggets will want to attack. Over in 8/L11 with 30+ mins (which is anything but a guarantee right now - but both teams are playing very well right now - should stay close enough).

N.Jokic o20.5 Rebs+Ast-105

Jokic absolutely destroys Jonas Valanciunas in H2H matchups. Over their last 10, Jokic is averaging a triple double with 30.6 points, 14.0 rebounds, and 10.7 assists. He has exceeded his RA line of 20.5 in 9/10 with 6 triple doubles (5 consecutive) and 2 misses at 9 assists. Couple this with Jokic’s home/road solid this season where he sees an uptick in assists to 9.4 per game and this is a n excellent spot for Jokic. I don’t mind a PRA, but his scoring can be a bit variable at times.

N.Jokic Triple-Double Yes+200
