Today's NBA same-game parlay picks: Nikola Jokic key for Timberwolves-Nuggets model parlay, plus more SGP plays

Nikola Jokic is close to becoming the third player in NBA history to average a triple-double over a regular season. Heading into this campaign, only Oscar Robertson (1961-62) and Russell Westbrook (2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2020-21) have accomplished the legendary feat. Jokic has put up 29.3 points, 12.8 rebounds and 10.2 assists in 64 games this season.

The Denver Nuggets have won two straight since Jokic returned from an ankle injury after going 2-3 in the five games he missed. They need every win they can get down the stretch. The Nuggets currently sit in third in the Western Conference at 47-28—just three games ahead of the fifth-place Memphis Grizzlies to knock them out of having homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs. Denver hosts the seventh-place Minnesota Timberwolves Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET in a key game for both squads. 

Jokic has put up 26.7 points, 9.3 assists and 6.7 rebounds in three games against the Timberwolves this season. That is Jokic's fewest combined points + assists + rebounds average against any Western Conference foe this season. Jokic has also gone Under his points + assists prop in six of his past 10 games when the Nuggets have been favored and faced a team with a winning record. That recent trend could be something to keep in mind before building out your NBA same-game parlays Tuesday.
