Nikola Jokic continues to notch dominant performances night-in and night-out for the Denver Nuggets. His MVP-caliber play has helped the team ascend to second in the Western Conference standings ahead of a matchup with the lowly Washington Wizards tonight.

Here’s a couple of top prop bet options on DraftKings Sportsbook for the three-time MVP in tonight’s game, which tips off at 9 p.m. EST.

Best Nikola Jokic prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Jokic’s lines on DraftKings Sportsbook are set at 28.5 points, 12.5 rebounds, 9.5 assists, and 1.5 three-pointers. His combined PTS + REB + AST line is currently 51.5.

This meeting with the Wizards is just about the best matchup Jokic could ask for. Washington ranks 28th in defensive rating and fourth in pace, plus they allow the most rebounds per game to opponents.

Jokic’s rebounds market is one to target. The Wizards’ big men aren’t much to write home about (though Alex Sarr has a bright future in this league), so Joker should dominate the boards tonight. The over on 12.5 boards is available at -120 odds, however, bettors can grab 14+ rebounds at +120 odds in the alt line market. If you don’t mind the risk, that could be the play as Jokic has tallied 14 or more boards in 29 of 61 appearances, including seven of 12 games since All-Star Weekend.

The Serbian big man is also one of the NBA’s most efficient shooters from beyond the arc this season. At 42.2% from deep, Jokic is tied with Karl-Anthony Towns for the ninth-best 3P% among all players. With that in mind, taking him to make over 1.5 three-pointers is a solid option at -115 odds.

We’ve got a bonus pick, too! Jokic has 29 triple-doubles in 61 games, nearly a 50% hit rate. He’s listed at +105 odds to record another one tonight, and against a very weak Wizards squad, he could notch one in relatively few minutes. It’s certainly worth a look in this matchup.
