Nikola Jokic with his team Serbia will confront Tremont Waters, Jose Alvarado, and their team Puerto Rico in the men's basketball pool play at the 2024 Olympics on Wednesday. The desire for the first win in Group C ignites both teams as they have unfortunately lost their opening game on Sunday. Team USA dominated Serbia, and South Sudan surprisingly defeated Puerto Rico.
The stakes are high as a victory places either Serbia or Puerto Rico in the knockout stages. However, facing Team USA in its final pool play might complicate things for Puerto Rico. Despite scoring 20 points through 8-of-15 shooting in the previous game against the Americans, Nikola Jokic couldn't lead Serbia to victory.

Jose Alvarado, the guard for the New Orleans Pelicans, had an exceptional performance against South Sudan, managing to score 26 points by shooting 9-from-16 from the field. With merely 19.5 points set for this matchup, there's potential for him to surpass that based on his opening-game performance. For Puerto Rico to stand a chance at winning, both Alvarado and Tremont Waters need to assert control over this game from the guard position.
An intriguing statistic from Serbia's initial pool play against Team USA relates to Nikola Jokic’s plus/minus. Serbia was on par with Team USA during the 30:45 that Jokic was playing. However, Serbia fell behind by 26 points during the 9:15 he wasn't in play. While it's unreasonable to expect Jokic to play without pause, Serbia desperately needs to capitalize on the MVP's time on the field, especially against a less formidable team like Puerto Rico. Following his score of 20 against Team USA, Jokic has a point prop set at 19.5.
