NBA Playoffs PrizePicks Player Predictions: Thursday (5/18)

by |

The Denver Nuggets took Game 1 behind an absolutely ridiculous performance from Nikola Jokic. He had 34 points, 21 rebounds, and 14 assists, which easily cleared every total that was set for him by PrizePicks. Will Jokic have a similar game on Thursday, and what should we expect from his teammates and the Lakers?

This Season: 33-33

Wednesday’s Best NBA PrizePicks Player Predictions

Here are the best PrizePicks plays for Thursday, May 18th’s NBA action.

Nikola Jokic Over 9.5 Assists

It’s surprising to see this number so low. Jokic’s total for rebounds is set at 13.0 which seems right considering he has gone below that number twice in his last four games. While his points total seems a little low at 27.5, the Lakers could make defensive adjustments against him. However, Jokic has had at least 11 assists in five consecutive games, and there is no reason to think that’s going to change tonight.
