The 76ers are -3.5-point road favorites so he should see full minutes in a close game, but Philadelphia should be motivated to come out on top after falling just short last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Expert NBA Player Props for Monday: Jusuf Nurkic Utah Jazz OVER 13.5 Rebounds + Assists (-105)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Jusuf Nurkic has registered 16+ RA in three straight games while clearing this number in 5 of his last games and 7 of his last 9 games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nurkic has seen amazing volume recently with an average of 29.1 RA chances &amp; 29 minutes per game and when he&#8217;s played 25+ minutes he&#8217;s covered this line in 14\/17 games while averaging 17 RA per game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cleveland Cavaliers do have a double big lineup but Jarrett Allen being on the floor should allow Nurkic to camp out in the paint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have seen several opposing centers eclipse their respective RA lines against Cleveland including Rudy Gobert (14 &amp; 16), Victor Wembanyama (17), Mitchell Robinson (15), Karl Anthony-Towns (15), Moussa Diabate (16) and Nikola Vucevic (17 &amp; 13). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cavaliers are -13.5-point favorites, but the Jazz just got completely embarrassed in a 150-95 loss against the Charlotte Hornets so Utah should put up some sort of a fight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"anchor\" id=\"newsletterfrm\"><\/a>\n<div class=\"hottest_play_area\">\n  <div id=\"newsletter_widget\" class=\"hottest_play_third_area newsletter_widget\">\n    <div class=\"hottest_play_third_area_content\">\n      <div class=\"sign-up-offer-text\">\n        <p>SPECIAL OFFER FOR FIRST TIME SUBSCRIBERS<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"newsletter-thank new\" style=\"display: none;\">\n        <a class=\"anchor-newsletter\"><\/a>\n        Thanks for signing up!
