Denver Nuggets
With the victory on Saturday the Nuggets have equaled the win total of the Celtics but remain second given they have one extra loss.
Keep an eye on this situation as it wouldn’t be surprising if Denver keeps ascending and finishes with the best record overall.
To finish the season the Celtics have 17 road games remaining, 14 games against teams with winning records, and five sets of back-to-backs. In contrast, Denver also has 17 road games left to play, 16 versus winning clubs, and four back-to-back sets.
Stats
Denver possesses the best offense in the league highlighted by scoring 117.0 points per game ranking fifth. Denver is shooting the best field goal percentage of 50.9% as well as the top-ranked perimeter efficiency of 39.8%.
To be sure, defensively the Nuggets are improving. So far, they allow opponents to score 112.8 points per game which ranks 13th while limiting foes to 47.9% from the field and 35.3% from deep ranking 24th and eighth respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Jack White (leg) is out.
- Collin Gillespie (leg fracture) is out.

Minnesota Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards continues to ascend and while Karl-Anthony Towns has been out sidelined it sure feels like AntMan has taken over control of the Wolves.
In the dust-up that happened between Austin Rivers and Mo Bamba, in replaying the incident it was Edwards to who my eye kept being drawn.
Watch how he comes into the fray – picks up Cole Anthony and literally carries him away, then returns to get teammate Taurean Prince helping him up and then pulling him away.

That is what we call leadership and something tells me that it’ll be KAT who has to concede to what Edwards wants whenever he returns from injury.
Side note: in the same film clip watch Rudy Gobert who sort of halfheartedly puts his hand on Paolo Banchero’s wrist, immediately removes it, and then steps back. It felt like it was done in order to say later — I made an effort to keep others from joining in.
Stats
Minnesota opponents score 115.2 points per game ranking 19th while the Wolves limit them to 46.6% from the field and 36.8% from deep ranking eighth and 25th respectively.
On offense, the Wolves score 115.2 points per game ranking 10th while shooting 49.0% from the field and 35.4% from the perimeter ranking fourth and 19th respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Rudy Gobert., C (Questionable — groin)
- Karl-Anthony Towns, C (OUT indefinitely — calf)
- Austin Rivers PG (OUT — serving a suspension)
- Jordan McLaughlin, PG (OUT indefinitely — calf)
- Kyle Anderson PF (Questionable — back)

Free Denver Nuggets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves NBA Prediction:
As good as the Wolves have been lately, the Nuggets have been even better. Since it’s a home-and-home series both clubs will want to grab the first game hoping to set themselves up to win the season series.
Yeah – I still like the Nuggets and am shocked the spread is so meager despite the rest disadvantage.
Denver is 4-3 in the second game of back-to-back sets and ironically both prior meetings with the Wolves occurred in this exact situation (side eye at the schedule makers).
