Nikola Jokic Over 3 Three-Pointers Attempted

Of all the bets we could make for Nikola Jokic, why this one? Because it is simply too low of a line. Jokic has attempted at least three 3-pointers in three of his four games against the Lakers this season. Against the Suns, Jokic attempted at least three in four of the six games.

Jokic is comfortable shooting the ball from deep, and we don’t see that changing tonight as he goes head-to-head with Anthony Davis. Davis can guard the perimeter pretty well, but any time he is not in the game, expect to see Jokic testing his range.

At BettingPros, we’ve compiled several projection sources to come up with consensus projections. We then compared these projections to the prop bet odds from the sportsbooks to give you the best prop bet picks.

What are Player Props?
Player props refer to wagers that bettors can make based on player performance in a specific game. The majority of player props are built around the most common statistical benchmarks for a specific sport such as yards and touchdowns in football. Most player props are straight over/under plays that open at or near -110 and are adjusted based on where the money lands. Examples of basketball player prop bets include over/under bets on points, assists, rebounds, three-pointers made, blocks, or steals.
