His overall season average stands at 12.6 rebounds per game, which already suggests a tendency to hit the over on the proposed line. Furthermore, Jokic’s performance at home has been particularly strong, with a home average of 12.77 rebounds per game. The Timberwolves’ defensive scheme, which often focuses on perimeter defense, may leave opportunities for Jokic to capitalize on the boards, especially given his intelligent positioning and the Nuggets’ system that often sees him as the last line of defense, ready to clean up the glass.

Jokic’s role as the Nuggets’ primary facilitator has him averaging 9.01 assists per game for the season, comfortably above the line of 8.5 assists. His vision and passing ability are unmatched for a center, and his last 5 games have seen him average 9.8 assists per game, indicating he’s in excellent form as a playmaker. Additionally, Jokic’s home assist average is 9.48, suggesting that he thrives in the home-court setting where the Nuggets will be playing. Given the Timberwolves’ strong perimeter defense, Jokic may find himself orchestrating the offense even more to exploit mismatches and find open shooters or cutters, further increasing his chances of surpassing the assist line.
