Game Preview

Minnesota Timberwolves have five wins in a row and look very good these days. After beating the Suns, 76ers, Hornets, and Heat, their most recent victims were the San Antonio Spurs, whom they defeated 140-124.

Anthony Edwards scored 25 points, a team-high. Ant is the leader in 3-points scored this season, having 257 hits behind the arc. He significantly improved his long-distance shooting since coming to the league.

The Nuggets responded after losing to the Thunder on Sunday night. Jokic showed who the boss in the NBA is, leading his team with 35 points and 18 boards to a 140-127 triumph at the Paycom Center.

Even though many analysts and those who have the right to vote for the NBA MVP winner already declared themselves siding with Shai Gilgeous Alexander, Jokic’s performances may only diminish their reputation in the future.

Timberwolves vs. Nuggets Betting Trends

  • Minnesota is 5-0 in the last 5 games.
  • The TOTAL has gone OVER in 7 of the Timberwolves’ last 10 events.
  • Nuggets are 10-1 in the previous 11 contests at Ball Arena.
  • Nuggets are No.1 in FG percentage in the NBA – 50.7% FG
