Experts Release NBA Player Props: Sunday Projections for Nikola Jokic and Victor Wembanyama

On Sunday, April 12, 2026, the Denver Nuggets will rest most of their starting rotation for the regular-season finale against the San Antonio Spurs, ruling out Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, and Christian Braun.
Denver currently holds the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference but could drop to No. 4 if they lose to San Antonio and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Utah Jazz on Sunday.
Three-Time MVP Nikola Jokic is listed as questionable for the game but must play at least 15 minutes against the Spurs to maintain eligibility for end-of-season awards.
The Spurs also face lineup uncertainty, with Victor Wembanyama, Stephon Castle, and Devin Vassell listed as questionable. Coach Mitch Johnson emphasized the team's need to maintain performance.
As it stands, Denver would face the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round as the No. 3 seed; dropping to the fourth seed would instead set up a matchup with the Houston Rockets.
