The Nuggets couldn't beat the Thunder on Friday, even though the reigning champions were without Gilgeous-Alexander. Denver would eventually lose 127-121 in overtime. A viral incident marred the game as Jokic, furious, confronted Lu Dort for tripping him. In the end, the Serbian finished with 23 points, 17 rebounds, and 14 assists; the Nuggets lost, even though Murray did play, ignoring reports that he was sick, and had a tremendous 39-point night.
On Sunday, the Nuggets will continue playing in another explosive rivalry when they face the Timberwolves in the afternoon. In recent seasons, there have been two heated playoff series between the Nuggets and Timberwolves; both teams enter the game with an identical 37-23 record. But when it comes to betting odds, their records are very different. The Nuggets have outperformed expectations in terms of their spread record, frequently covering and boasting a 34-26 record. Minnesota, on the other hand, has a 25-35 record in this regard.
The Timberwolves won their last two games, both on the road; they defeated the Blazers 124-121 and beat the Clippers in a low-scoring game 94-88.

Our Denver Nuggets vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction
It will be another matchup between NBA stars, Jokic versus Anthony Edwards. On Christmas Day, Edwards last managed to score 44 points against the Nuggets, but it wasn't enough, as the Nuggets won all three of their games against Minnesota this season.
The last of those games was also played at the Ball Arena; it was a back-and-forth affair that ended 142-138 in overtime, with Denver securing the victory thanks to 56 points from perennial MVP contender Jokic that night.
Our prediction for Nuggets vs Timberwolves is: Nuggets ML.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
