Nikola Jovic Points
Player Prop - 2/27/2024

Portland Trail Blazers vs Miami Heat

 
 
 
Nikola Jovic Points Prop is currently Over/Under 5.5 (-115/-115).

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Nikola Jovic has sunk 70.8% of his shots from behind the three-point arc over the last 5 games, 28.3% higher than he's made in all games this season.
  • This year when they are on the road, the other team has secured 9.8 offensive rebounds per game (4th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Portland Trail Blazers (losing possessions that could otherwise create extra opportunities for offense).
  • Nikola Jovic has sunk 97.5% of his foul shots over the last 11 games on the road, 41.7% more than he's made over the course of the season without the home court advantage.
  • As a team, the Miami Heat have been very successful at getting to the charity stripe recently: 4th-best in the NBA over the last 5 games while on the road with 23.6 free throws per game.
  • This year when they are the visiting squad, the opposing team's starting PFs have attempted 4.0 foul shots per game (24th-most in the league) against the Trail Blazers, succeeding in their efforts to get to the charity stripe.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The matchup vs. the Trail Blazers is a challenging one for threes; the opposition's starting PFs have compiled the 12th-lowest 3-point rate in the league this year (29.6%).
  • The least up-tempo tempo road team in the league over the last 25 games has been the Miami Heat.
  • The Portland Trail Blazers have played at the 3rd-most lethargic pace-of-play in the NBA on their home court this year, which should reduce opportunities for the Miami Heat.
  • The Heat check in as the 4th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional chances for scoring and assists).
  • Nikola Jovic will not receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home stadium tends to lower player performance in all stat categories.
