  4. Denver is 7-3 SU in their last 10 games

Our Denver Nuggets vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction

The Nuggets are the small betting favorite in this game; however, the Timberwolves look to be the best betting option. Minnesota has not only won their last three games in a row, but has done so against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Milwaukee Bucks, and the New York Knicks.

Minnesota has also been a solid road team his season, having posted a record of 8-5, while the Nuggets are 9-5 at home. So while the Nuggets are one of the top teams in the league, they tend to rely on Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray too much, while the Timberwolves have a more balanced roster. 

Given this, our Denver Nuggets vs Minnesota Timberwolves prediction is: Minnesota Timberwolves +3.5.

Prediction:

 

Minnesota Timberwolves +3.5
