Best Nikola Jokic Player Props Bets vs. the Toronto Raptors

As the Denver Nuggets prepare to face the Toronto Raptors, all eyes will be on Nikola Jokic, the team’s leading force. Jokic has been instrumental this season, leading the Nuggets in points, rebounds, and assists. His versatility and ability to impact the game across multiple statistical categories make him a focal point for both fans and bettors alike. With the Nuggets aiming to build on their recent form and Jokic’s consistent performance, this matchup promises to highlight his skills and influence on the court.

Nikola Jokic Over 9.5 Assists (-140)

Nikola Jokic’s assists prop at 9.5 is a compelling pick for the over, considering his season average of 9.44 assists per game and his performance over the last 10 games, where he’s averaged 10.4 assists. Jokic’s playmaking abilities are a cornerstone of the Nuggets’ offense, and his vision on the court allows him to create opportunities for his teammates consistently. Furthermore, the Nuggets’ style of play, which emphasizes ball movement and unselfishness, often results in high assist numbers for Jokic, as evidenced by his 10 triple-doubles this season. Against the Raptors, who have been working on their team chemistry under a new coach, Jokic’s experience and understanding of his teammates’ positioning could lead to him exploiting any defensive lapses and racking up assists.

Nikola Jokic Over 0.5 Three Pointers (-150)

The over on Nikola Jokic’s three-pointers prop at 0.5 is another strong pick, given his ability to stretch the floor as a big man. Jokic has hit this mark in 77.78% of games this season, with an average of 1.11 made three-pointers per contest. His recent performance may show a slight dip, with a last 5 games average of 0.4, but Jokic’s shooting prowess from beyond the arc is not to be underestimated. The matchup against the Raptors could present opportunities for Jokic to take advantage of the perimeter, especially if Toronto focuses on collapsing the paint to defend against his inside game. With Jokic’s skill set and the Nuggets’ offensive system that creates space for shooters, it’s likely that he will have enough chances to hit at least one three-pointer during the game.
