Over the last three weeks, Nikola Jokic has cemented himself as one one the best big men in DFS. In his last nine games, the Denver Nuggets' center has showcased all of his tools, racking up three triple-doubles while averaging 19.7 points, 12.1 rebounds, 6.7 assists, 1.0 steals, and 44.0 fantasy points per night in that stretch.

In the last three games, Denver has been without Wilson Chandler and Danilo Gallinari. In those contests, Jokic has seen his usage rate jump 2.3% (up to 25.5%). The duo are looking questionable again on Wednesday, giving Jokic increased touches in what's projected to be the highest-scoring game of the night.

The matchup with the Cleveland Cavaliers carries an over/under of 228.5, with the Nuggets having an implied total of 112.5 points, a modest boost over their season-long scoring average. Jokic tends to play better in higher-scoring affairs. According to the Rotoviz games splits app, the Nuggets' big man has averaged 48.8 FanDuel points in the seven career games he has played this season with an over/under or at least 228 points.

Jokic's matchup against a below-average defender in Tristan Thompson is icing on the cake. Thompson carries a 1.01 defensive real plus/minus -- ranking 40th among 68 qualified centers. The last time they played, the Denver center -- where Jokic spends 88% of his minutes -- had 47.6 fantasy points.
