Nikola Jokic 2024-2025 Fantasy Outlook

Nikola Jokic, Denver Nuggets, MVP

Nikola Jokic brought home his third MVP award in the last four years last season. He is without question, the best player in the NBA going into this upcoming season. Jokic already has an ironclad Hall of Fame resume and is only 29 years old.

Jokic and the Denver Nuggets likely head into this upcoming season as favorites to represent the Western Conference in the Finals. Jokic will be the driving force that determines where the Nuggets finish this season. Unsurprisingly, Jokic will be at the top of draft boards this upcoming season. Let’s analyze his fantasy value for the 2024-2025 season.

Nikola Jokic was masterful again last season averaging 26.4 points, 12.4 rebounds, and 9 assists. This production is nothing new to him considering he nearly averaged a triple-double in 2022-2023. Jokic was selected to his sixth All-Star Team, and fourth All-NBA First Team, leading the Nuggets to the number two seed in the Western Conference.

Jokic led all players in total fantasy points last season in 79 games. He typically does not miss games, however, last season he did wear down toward the end of the season and it affected him going into the playoffs. Jokic set a career-high in minutes per game last season and may need to dial it back to be at full strength as the season winds down. Jokic did play for Serbia in the Olympics so time will tell if that takes a toll on his endurance to power through the regular season.

Nikola Jokic’s 2024-2025 Fantasy Projection

Nikola Jokic will likely be the unanimous number-one pick in most fantasy drafts. Victor Wembanyama may have something to say about that but you should be safe with either pick. According to ESPN, Jokic is projected to average 26.7 points, 12.7 rebounds, and 9.2 assists in 77 games.

Lineup Experts projects Jokic to finish third in total fantasy points in 2024-2025. Luka Doncic and Giannis Antetokounmpo take the top two spots in these projections. Depending on player health, Jokic could move up or down in the rankings, but he is firmly in the top five for fantasy points.

Final Thoughts

Nikola Jokic shows no signs of slowing down as he nears age 30. He is a champion, an MVP, and arguably the best player in the world right now. The Minnesota Timberwolves used three separate bigs to guard him and take down the Denver Nuggets in the playoffs last season. Jokic scores at every level and is one of the best passers in the league right now. He continues to amaze and make you appreciate his level of skill.

Jokic is one of the most reliable players you can have for your fantasy team. It’s yet to be determined whether the Denver Nuggets will sit Jokic out for back-to-backs. To this point it hasn’t happened, so all signs point to Jokic playing 75-80 games again this upcoming season. Nikola Jokic is headed for another MVP-caliber season and if you draft Jokic, your fantasy team might be headed to a championship.
