Best NBA Bets for Monday | Nikola Jokic

Nikola Jokic O/U 10.5 Assists

Jokic is having a fantastic season and many believe he should win his third consecutive MVP award. He is averaging a triple-double for the year with 24.5 points, 11.8 rebounds and 10.0 assists per game. However, even though Jokic has put up a bunch of triple-doubles this season, he still does not have many games with 11 or more assists. In fact, over the last nine games he’s played, he’s had 11 or more assists in only one of those games.

Stokastic’s projections for today have Jokic at around 9.5 assists, which is under his current over/under of 10.5 assists. While Jokic is a great player, the under is the play here. Even with all the triple-doubles he has put up this season, he has fallen short of 10 assists more times than he’s gone over it.

Trey Murphy O/U 3.5 Rebounds

Murphy has been a pleasant surprise for the New Orleans Pelicans this season, especially when they have been short-handed due to injuries. Currently, his over/under for rebounds is set at 3.5 and the odds are great for the over. Stokastic’s projections have Murphy at over four rebounds, and that number could potentially go up even more if Jonas Valanciunas is ruled out due to injury. If Valanciunas is out, Murphy could project for around five rebounds, making this bet even more attractive.
