Nikola Jokic Points
Player Prop - 5/18/2023

Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Lakers

Nikola Jokic Points Prop is currently Over/Under 28.5 (-140/+110).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

Nikola Jokic has scored 35.6 points per game over the last 5 games, 10.1 more than he's scored over the course of the season.

Nikola Jokic has successfully made 51.7% of his 3-point attempts over the last 10 games, 11.2% more than he's converted from 3-point range overall this season.

Nikola Jokic has been on the court for 38.7 minutes per game over the last 10 games, 4.9 more than he's been on the court for overall this season.

The matchup against Los Angeles is a strong one; when the Lakers are the visiting team, they have given up the 28th-most points per game in the NBA to the other team's starting Cs this year (15.4).

The Lakers have played at the 4th-most up-tempo pace in the NBA without the home court advantage this year, which should increase possessions for the Nuggets.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

The Denver Nuggets have played at the 2nd-most lethargic pace-of-play in the league over the last 15 games when playing at home.

The Lakers have given up the most offensive rebounds per game (13.8) in the league to their opposition over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore provide additional chances for scoring and assists).

As a team, the Denver Nuggets have been lousy at getting to the foul line: 8th-worst in the NBA this year, averaging just 22.4 foul shot attempts per game.

The matchup against the Lakers may be a challenging one for drawing fouls; the other team's starting Cs have attempted a lowly 1.9 free throws per game over the last 25 games (11th-least in the NBA).
