This should be 13.5 given his recent history against the Hornets. He has recorded 27, 16, and 10 rebounds against them and the 10 was an odd game where Jamal Murray grabbed a whopping 12 boards himself. The Hornets likely continue to be without Mark Williams (doubtful - back) and this leaves just Nick Richards as the primary line of defense. Richards has been solid and in his last 10 without Williams he is averaging 8.1 rebounds on 16.1 chances; however, compared to Jokic he does not haul in nearly as high of a percentage of those chances. Williams is at 50.3% compared to Jokic at 63.9%. Jokic dominates on the glass and should easily clear this 12.5 line tonight.
