Best bet: Nikola Jokic Over 21.5 points (-125 via BetMGM)
With news breaking that Jokic will reportedly return tonight, Iβm betting the Over on 21.5 points. This line overreacts to the possibility of him being on a minutes restriction. Jokic is one of the most efficient players in the NBA, and he scored 23 or more points in 11 of 13 games in December before going down with a knee injury.
Additionally, Jokic has also cashed this prop in seven of his last 10 games against the Clippers, including the playoffs.

The Clippers rank 27th in offensive rebounds per game with just 9.6, so Jokic should have plenty of opportunities to rack up defensive boards. Besides, heβs also hit this prop in seven of his last 10 meetings with the Clippers.
