Where to Watch: MNMT

The Denver Nuggets (42-24) will host the Washington Wizards (14-51) on March 15, 2025, at Ball Arena in Denver.  The Nuggets are currently second in the Western Conference standings, showcasing strong form this season. In contrast, the Wizards have struggled, holding one of the lowest records in the Eastern Conference.​

Denver's success has been largely driven by the stellar performance of Nikola Jokić, who is averaging 28.9 points, 13.0 rebounds, and 10.5 assists per game this season.  His ability to impact multiple facets of the game makes him a challenging matchup for any opponent.​

The Wizards are dealing with injury concerns, notably with forward Bilal Coulibaly listed as questionable due to a right hip contusion.  His potential absence could further hinder Washington's rotation and defensive capabilities.​

Nikola Jokic Over 12.5 Rebounds

Nikola Jokić has been a dominant force on the boards for the Denver Nuggets during the 2024–25 NBA season. Averaging 12.9  rebounds per game. Jokic is coming off a relatively slow rebounding night, only securing 8 rebounds against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Before that game, we saw him secure 13+ rebounds in 7 straight games. I expect him to go back to those types of numbers in this one going against the Wizards. The Wizards are giving up 56.7 rebounds per game to opposing teams, which is the most in the whole NBA. This is a dream matchup for Jokic when it comes to a rebounding perspective. 

Jamal Murray Over 5.5 Assists 

Jamal Murray has been a pivotal playmaker for the Denver Nuggets during the 2024–25 NBA season. Starting all 50 games, he has averaged 36.0 minutes per game. Murray leads the team in assists, averaging 6.1 per game, showcasing his ability to facilitate the offense effectively. ​Murray's consistent playmaking has been instrumental in the Nuggets' offensive strategies, complementing the scoring prowess of teammates like Nikola Jokić. Murray has logged 6 or more assists in 5 of his last 6 games and is coming off a 8 assist night against the Timberwolves. Washington is giving up 28.4 assists per game to opposing teams, which is well above the league average. I expect another solid night from Murray facilitating the ball. 

Kris Middleton Over 3.5 Assists 

Khris Middleton has been a valuable playmaker during the 2024–25 NBA season. He began the season with the Milwaukee Bucks, averaging 4.4 assists per game over 23 games. Following his trade to the Washington Wizards on February 5, 2025, Middleton has maintained his playmaking role, averaging 4.2 assists per game. ​Middleton's transition to the Wizards has been smooth, as evidenced by his consistent assist numbers. He’s coming off a game where he logged 8 assists against the Pistons. He has a favorable matchup in this one going against the Nuggets, who give 29.1 assists per game to opposing teams, which is the most in the league.
