Best Nikola Jokic Player Props Bets vs. the Boston Celtics
As the Denver Nuggets prepare to host the Boston Celtics, all eyes will be on the reigning MVP, Nikola Jokic. Jokic has been the cornerstone of the Nuggets’ success and will be pivotal in their clash against the defensively stout Celtics. His versatile skill set will be put to the test, and his performance could very well dictate the outcome of this potential NBA Finals preview.
Nikola Jokic Over 8.5 Assists (-145)
Nikola Jokic is renowned for his exceptional playmaking abilities, especially for a center, which makes the assists prop a compelling pick. Jokic has been averaging 9.15 assists per game this season, which is well above the line set at 8.5 assists. His vision and ability to find open teammates have been a consistent feature of his game, and he’s hit the over on this prop in 53.33% of games this season. Moreover, when playing at home, Jokic’s assists average slightly increases to 9.53, indicating that he’s more comfortable dishing out assists in front of the home crowd. The last 10 games have seen a slight dip to 9.8 assists on average, but it’s still above the line, and with the Nuggets likely to rely heavily on Jokic’s playmaking against a tough Celtics defense, there’s a strong narrative for him to exceed this total once again.
Nikola Jokic Over 21.5 Rebounds & Assists (-115)
Combining Jokic’s rebounding and assisting prowess, the Rebounds & Assists prop is another attractive option. Jokic’s season averages for rebounds and assists combined are 21.47, which is just below the line of 21.5. However, delving deeper into the numbers, we see that Jokic’s home performance for this combined stat is 21.93, suggesting that he steps up in these categories when playing in Denver. Additionally, the last 5 games have seen him average 22.6 for rebounds and assists combined, showing an uptrend that aligns with the over for this prop. Given Jokic’s role as the fulcrum of the Nuggets’ offense and his responsibility on the boards, it’s reasonable to expect him to meet or exceed this combined total, especially in a high-stakes game where his all-around contributions will be crucial.
