Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Denver Nuggets Prediction

Minnesota pulled off a huge upset in Game 1.

The Wolves went into Denver and stole the first game of the series.

Not many people gave the Wolves much of a chance in this series.

When it comes to the playoffs, this Wolves team is fairly inexperienced.

It is a tall task to go on the road and take down the defending champions.

Regardless of tonight’s result, Minnesota will return to the Twin Cities feeling good about what they did on the road.

Denver desperately needs to win tonight.

The team is calling this game a must-win for a good reason.

This championship team knows how to play in high-pressure situations.

Denver was one of the best teams in basketball on their home floor this season.

The Nuggets represent a 36-9 record in Denver.

Anthony Edwards has been the star of the playoffs. Edwards leads the team with 33.4 points per game.

Karl-Anthony Towns has had a strong postseason, averaging 19.4 points and 8.4 rebounds.

Rudy Gobert has added 13.2 points and a team-high 11.4 rebounds per game.

Nikola Jokic leads the Nuggets in the playoffs with 28.8 points, 14.8 rebounds, and 9.7 assists.

Jamal Murray has added 22.5 points and 6.7 assists in the playoffs.

Michael Porter Jr. has been great, adding 22.3 points and 8.0 rebounds.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Denver Nuggets Prediction

I love this spot for the Nuggets.

This is one of my favorite plays of the playoffs so far.

Denver is in a must-win spot tonight.

After the Game 1 loss, this is one they have to have at home.

We are getting a generous number on the Nuggets tonight, and will take advantage.
