The Minnesota Timberwolves will be back at Target Center to wrap up the series. They had a chance to close out the first-round playoffs series in Game 5 but Denver came out with a strong offense. The Wolves dropped Game 5 113-125. Minnesota still have two chances to win the series. However, it will be the final home game of the series. They would be high on confidence after winning the first two games convincingly. The home advantage gives them a slight edge in this game.
After dropping the first game, the Wolves won three straight games to take a decisive lead. It would be a fascinating story if they win a home game to book the tickets for the conference finals. Since 2020, no team has overcome to win the series after conceding a 3-1 lead. The Denver Nuggets were the last team to do so. Minnesota would be in pressure in Game 7 if they drop Wednesday’s game. Denver have a good record in Game 7 in the NBA playoffs.
Minnesota averaged 118 points per game in the regular season and allowed 114.6 points per game. Their scoring dropped in the playoffs but their defence kept the opposition silent. They were outscored 24-37 in the third quarter and it proved costly. Julius Randle was the top performer for them with 27 points and nine rebounds. If we pick out the offensive threat for Monday’s game, Anthony Edwards is the right pick. The 24-year-old star averaged 28.8 points in the regular season. We back him to score 15 or more points in this game.
The Denver Nuggets would be relaxed after securing a much-need victory at home arena on Monday night. The third quarter surge helped Denver to take a commanding lead. With this win, they snapped a three-game losing skid in the NBA playoffs. They will arrive at Target Center to face the Timberwolves again in Game 6. Denver would eye to tie the series and push them to take the series in the home game. Jokic & Co. have a strong record in Game 7 of the playoffs.
The Nuggets are looking to repeat their 2020 playoff heroics when they defeated the Clippers after conceding a 3-1 lead. Only 13 teams managed to achieve this and Denver remains the only team to do it twice. The Nuggets beat the Wolves three out of four times in the regular season but lost three out of five in the playoffs. Denver played two road games against the Wolves in the playoffs and lost both of them. You can’t right off Minnesota at Target Center.
Denver finished third in the Eastern Conference this season with a 54-28 record. Nikola Jokic dropped a triple-double to snatch a breakthrough victory. Jamal Murray also dropped 24 points and Spencer Jones had 20. Nikola Jokic could be an offensive threat in this game. He is a big match player and averaged 27.7 points in the regular season. We back him to score 20 or more points in the road fixture. The Nuggets would try to drag this series to finale so they can get home advantage.
