Nikola Jokic Points Prop is currently Over/Under 29.5 (-120/-110).
The money has been on the Over as it opened 28.5 @ -115 before it was bet up to 29.5 @ -120.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
Nikola Jokic has averaged 37.0 points per game over the last 5 games, 7.8 more than he's averaged over the course of the season.
With respect to scoring, the Nuggets's impressive 124.6 points per game places 2nd-best in the league this year.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
The 5th-most lethargic pace-of-play away offense in the league this year has been the Nuggets.
The Nuggets are expected to see a decline in plays today from sharing the court with the 4th-slowest pace team in the NBA this year (the New Orleans Pelicans).
The Denver Nuggets have been the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA while on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).
