Nikola Jovic Assists
Player Prop - 2/23/2024

New Orleans Pelicans vs Miami Heat

Nikola Jovic Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 1.5 (-125/-105).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 1.5 @ -115 before it was bet up to 1.5 @ -125.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

Nikola Jovic has tallied an impressive 1.9 assists per game this season, a significant increase from his 0.5 assists per game last season.

The Miami Heat are expected to see a spike in plays in this contest from competing against the 5th-most up-tempo pace-of-play home offense in the league over the last 5 games (the New Orleans Pelicans).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

The Heat have played at the most sluggish tempo in the NBA over the last 20 games while playing away from home.

Offensive rebounds save possession and create bonus chances for scoring and assists, but the Heat grade out 4thworst in in the league as the away team with only 9.4 offensive boards per game this year.

Playing at home, the New Orleans Pelicans have allowed the 5th-most offensive rebounds per game (11.4) in the league to their opposition this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to new opportunities for scoring and assists).

Nikola Jovic will not enjoy the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home stadium generally lowers player performance in all stat categories.
