Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
The Nuggets are back to their best after the return of Jokic from a short injury layoff. They have won three matches on the bounce since his return. The Serbian center is having another MVP-like season, scoring an average of 30.1 points per match while assisting 9.9. As a team, the Nuggets have scored an average of 120.1 PPG, which is third in basketball. However, they'll be squaring off against Minnesota's mean defense, which averages 108 PAPG. That's good for fifth in the league. The Wolves are 3-1 in the last four meetings with the Nuggets while covering the spread in as many matches. However, the Nuggets are simply too good to beat at the moment. Our prediction for Minnesota Timberwolves vs Denver Nuggets: Denver Nuggets for the win.
