Nikola Jovic Points
Player Prop - 1/8/2024

Miami Heat vs Houston Rockets

Nikola Jovic Points Prop is currently Over/Under 6.5 (-106/-114).

The money has been on the Under as it opened 9.5 @ -130 before it was bet down to 6.5 @ -114.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

Nikola Jovic has successfully made 63.6% of his shot attempts from the field over the last 5 games, 17.2% more than he's put through the hoop over the course of the year.

In contrast to last season's 21.7% clip, Nikola Jovic's 3-point performance has risen this season to 43.7%.

In regard to three-point shots, the Heat's outstanding 38.7% rate of converted threes measures as the 2nd-strongest in the NBA this year.

The Houston Rockets have allowed the 10th-least offensive rebounds per game (10.5) in the NBA to their opposition this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer chances for scoring and assists).

The matchup against the Rockets is a positive one for getting to the free-throw line; the opposition's starting PFs have attempted a colossal 5.4 foul shots per game this year (29th-most in the league).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

Nikola Jovic has accumulated 2.3 personal fouls per game this year, ranking him as one of the highest-fouling players in the NBA (82nd percentile).

The matchup against the Rockets is a tough one for three-point shots; opposing starting PFs have posted the 15th-lowest three rate in the league this year (21.7%).

The Miami Heat have played at the 2nd-most sluggish pace in the league over the last 25 games.

The Rockets have played at the 4th-most sluggish pace in the league away from their home stadium this year, which should decrease plays for the Miami Heat.

Offensive rebounds continue possession and lead to additional chances for scoring and assists, but the Heat rank 6thworst in in the league with just 9.6 offensive boards per game this year.
