Nikola Jokic Under 28.5 Points

Jokic has been superb this year. Jokic is putting up better numbers per 40 minutes than last year when he was named the league’s MVP, with 31.7 points, 16.9 rebounds and 8.9 assists and a true shooting percentage of 63.8%. He has topped the 20-point mark in eight of his last 10 games and produced 14 double-doubles in his last 15 outings. However, he and the Nuggets have a tough matchup on the road against the Warriors. Golden State allows the third-fewest points in the league to opposing centers, and they have been even stingier lately. Over the last 10 games, the Warriors have limited centers to 15.2 points on 44.1% shooting from the field and 11.1% from the 3-point line. Moreover, Julius Randle, Domantas Sabonis and Anthony Davis are the only frontcourt players to put up at least 29 points against the Warriors this year. Golden State is not expected to have Draymond Green (health and safety) tonight, but this prop is still a tad bit too high. Jokic is projected for 24.76 points. OddsShopper gives the under a 71% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 37%.

Grayson Allen Over 9.5 Points

Allen’s point prop has dropped dramatically since his hot start at the beginning of the season. What makes this prop even better is that it is plus money with +100 odds.

Despite his recent struggles, Allen has still had his occasional strong shooting games. But he has only reached double figures in six of his last 14 outings. He averages a touch under 10 points a game, as he is shooting just 37.9% from the field and 35.5% from beyond the arc. Allen, projected for 10.87 points, has played better on the road this year. He scored in double figures in both the earlier matchups against the Magic and averages 15 points on 50% shooting from the field and 42.9% from beyond the arc. OddsShopper gives the over a 63% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 26%.
