The Denver Nuggets have won three of their previous four games and host the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight at 10:00 p.m. ET. The Timberwolves are 3-0 against the Nuggets this season, with their last matchup coming on March 12. Minnesota is 5-3 since their previous game.
The Nuggets’ best player, Nikola Jokic, has continued to dominate this season, averaging 29.3 points, 12.8 rebounds, and 10.2 assists per contest. Here is my favorite prop bet for Jokic against Minnesota tonight.
Nikola Jokic over 10.5 rebounds (-135)
Jokic is in the top three in the NBA this season in points, rebounds, and assists per game. Although he is an elite scorer, let’s examine his rebounding lately. Jokic has totaled 11 or more boards in seven of his 10 games in March. He has also hit this mark in 11 of the last 15 games.
You can get Jokic to record more than 10.5 rebounds against the Timberwolves at -135 on DraftKings Sportsbook. Although Jokic didn’t reach this mark against other Wolves in the previous matchups this season, he is bound to get back on track in this department tonight.
Since the NBA All-Star break, Jokic has consistently rebounded the ball. His over/under for points is set at 28.5, which he has only hit in five of his last 10 games. Jokic has finished with at least 11 rebounds in 43 of the 64 games he has played this year. During the past two months, Jokic has increased his rebounding average.
