Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Over/Under 12.5 Points
So far this season Jusuf Nurkic is averaging 11.8 points per game. This number does not go up against the Golden State Warriors. Over his last five games against the Warriors, Nurkic is averaging 11.8 points.
He seems to struggle with the defense of Kevon Looney and Draymond Green. The under is the safer play here as Nurkic has the ability to score but seems to only show that part of his game on rare occasions. Take the under!
Over/Under 9.5 Rebounds
Nurkic has done a good job on the boards so far this season. He is averaging 9.1 rebounds per game. This does not always translate against the Warriors. He has had big rebounding games and games where he has come up short on the boards.
In his last five games against the Warriors, Nurkic has had 5,6, 12,14, and 5 rebounds respectively. This could truly go either way with Nurkic. The under looks to be more likely with Draymond Green playing as well. He will make it tougher for Nurkic to get rebounds. Take the under!
Over/Under 2.5 Assists
Jusuf Nurkic is a good passer from the center position. So far this season he is averaging 3.8 assists per game. Nurkic will have to take advantage of the passing opportunities when the Warriors force Devin Booker and Bradley Beal to pass the ball.
Nurkic should be able to get at least three assists in this game as he will be the release on pick and roll where players other than Beal and Booker will be open. Take the over!
