Friday’s matchup between the Dallas Mavericks and Denver Nuggets is lacking serious star power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> Luka Doncic is out and Nikola Jokic is questionable after missing the last three games and yesterday’s practice for personal reasons. In their absence, I expect Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively to step up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out my Mavericks vs. Nuggets prop picks for Nov. 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Bet: Irving over 25.5 points (-124)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Irving can’t miss right now but has routinely fallen under this line due to shot volume. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November, the veteran guard is averaging 24.1 points per game on incredible 59.0\/50.0\/85.7 shooting splits. He’s 3-6 against this line this month, though, while attempting a middling 15.4 shots per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But he should see a serious uptick in volume with Doncic \u2014 who averages 22.6 FGA \u2014 sidelined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, one of the games where Irving cleared this total was against the Nuggets on Nov. 10. In that contest, he went nuclear for 43 points on 17-of-22 shooting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don’t expect that to be replicated but will feel great about this bet if he takes anywhere near 22 shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Denver’s biggest defensive weakness is in the short midrange and the rim. Irving is an elite finisher in tight and doesn’t need to do damage beyond the arc to score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Jokic unlikely to play and Aaron Gordon out, there should be little resistance for the crafty guard getting to the rim. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key stat:<\/strong> Irving has averaged 29.4 points in 12 games for Dallas without Doncic, cashing this bet in five of the previous six.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quick pick<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Lively over 14.5 points and rebounds (-124): <\/strong>All signs are pointing to Jokic missing this game, and if that’s the case it should be open season on the glass for Lively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the reigning MVP does suit up, it will make this bet a little tougher, but I still like the sophomore’s chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lively doesn’t get a lot of run for the Mavericks but makes the most of his limited opportunities. In 23.4 minutes a night, he is averaging 8.6 points and 6.8 rebounds on 69.0% shooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nuggets are allowing the eighth-most paint points per game and Lively hasn’t taken a single shot outside of 14 feet from the basket this season, according to Cleaning the Glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his last game against Denver (which Jokic played in), Lively had 14 points and eight rebounds coming off the bench. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
