Pick rationale
Analysis & key factors
- We’ve got two player props for you for Friday’s NBA action.
- Our top pick for today is that Nikola Jokic will score 30+ points.
- Luka Doncic over 31.5 points is another good prop in our opinion.
We went 2-for-2 with our NBA player props last night and we sure hope we can do the same with our top picks for Friday, December 8. There are 11 games on the program tonight, meaning that there are plenty of betting options to choose from. Still, two props caught our eye as you’ll see if you keep on reading.

Game Preview
The Denver Nuggets are hoping they can end their two-game losing streak tonight with a win over the Houston Rockets. Betting odds are heavily in their favor for several reasons. The game is played on their turf, they’ve got a good history against the Rockets, and so on.
On top of everything, Denver’s best player Nikola Jokic has been in phenomenal form, recording a triple-double in three of his last four games. In two of those, he scored over 30 points, which is what we expect to see from him tonight.

Game Preview
Luka Doncic scored 30+ points in each of his last five games. In his most recent game – against the Utah Jazz – he scored 40 points. The game in question took place two days ago, meaning that he’s had plenty of time to rest and prepare for the duel with the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Mavericks lost their last two games with the Trail Blazers, but Doncic didn’t play in either of those. The last time he played against Portland, he scored more points than anyone else – 33.
His points margin for tonight’s game is set at 31.5, which we think he’s going to go over with no major problems.
