Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Denver Nuggets host the Dallas Mavericks, all eyes will be on Nikola Jokic, but perhaps not in the way everyone expects. While the reigning MVP often dazzles with his passing, his average of 11 assists at home against Dallas is slightly inflated by a few standout performances. In fact, his recent form shows a dip, with an average of just 10.8 assists against the Mavericks when playing at home.Digging deeper, Jokic's overall average has settled at 12.6 assists recently, yet there's reason to believe he could fall shy of that 10.5 mark tonight. The Mavericks have tightened their perimeter defense, limiting his opportunities to dish out assists. With the expected stat value sitting at 9.37, betting the under aligns well with the current trends. In a game where he might be more focused on scoring than playmaking, this could be a savvy move.
