Game Preview

The Nuggets have won four in a row, most recently beating the Kings. Once again, Nikola Jokic was the main figure of the match. The three-time NBA MVP scored a basket from three-quarters of the court.

Yet, his stats were more impressive. The Joker had 35 points, 22 boards, and 17 assists. He is the only guy, along with Wilt Chamberlain, with such numbers. He is the No.1 contender for winning another NBA MVP honors.

Minnesota had back-to-back defeats before beating the Dallas Mavericks in Texas, 115-114. Jaden McDaniels made a free throw in the finish to seal the win and bring the T-Wolves their 23rd win of the season.

Ant and the boys have the fifth-best defense in the NBA, with 108.2 allowed points per game. Although they haven’t shown such elite protection in the last few events, they still stand as one of the best in this segment of the game.

Nuggets vs. Timberwolves Head to Head

Timberwolves have defeated the Nuggets at Mile High in the previous event this year, 119-116.

Nuggets vs. Timberwolves Prediction

The T-Wolves aren’t in great shape right now, but they have what it takes to slow down the Nuggets. The total is set at 225.5 points, and we pick under here.
