Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic will play on Friday but come off the bench.
Earlier reports indicated Jokic would start, but Mason Plumlee will, in fact, remain the starting center with Jokic having his minutes limited on Friday night.
Our models project Jokic for 30.9 minutes of action for 42.9 FanDuel points against the New Orleans Pelicans.
