Maybe the biggest exception to the "players at the top have tough matchups today" trend, Nikola Jokic gets a shot at a Houston Rockets squad that is still playing without Clint Capela.

Even with Capela, the Rockets rank only 24th in rebound rate (48.1%) and 27th in defensive rating (112.0) on the season. Since losing Capela, that rebound rate falls to 45.2% and the defensive rating climbs to 113.8. Not pretty.

Jokic has been a monster recently, dropping 60-plus fantasy points three times in his last four games. He ranks sixth in the NBA with an average of 1.51 FanDuel points per minute, and if Houston can keep this one close (oddsmakers suggest they can, favoring the Nuggets by only 4.5 points) he should be able to continue showing off that huge upside.
