The Minnesota Timberwolves will seek to avoid successive NBA defeats when they host the Denver Nuggets next. Both teams are 2-2 from their respective four games and sit outside the automatic playoff places in the West. Follow for our prediction of this match.
The Timberwolves suffered their second loss of the season last time out, falling 120-114 at home to the Mavericks. This saw them drop to seventh in the West. Chris Finch’s men are 1-1 at home.
They had defeated the Raptors 112-101 before the Mavs came to town. The hosts are averaging 111.5 points and allowing a similar number to their opponents. Minnesota dumped out Denver in the playoffs last season and this is their first appearance since then.
The Nuggets seem to have steadied the ship after a sticky start to the season. They have won back-to-back games, all on the road in the Eastern Conference.
This run has seen them move up to 10th in the West. Denver, who needed OT to claim both of their wins, saw off the Raptors 127-125 for their first win. Mike Malone’s men would then follow this up with a 144-139 victory in Brooklyn.
The Nuggets are putting up 115.5 points and giving up 118.8 a night. Nikola Jokic is averaging a league-leading 31.5 points.
