The Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets spilt their regular season series, with each team earning two wins. Two games finished in blowouts — one for each team — and the other two games were relatively close. In Minnesota’s blowout win, Denver was without two-time MVP Nikola Jokiu0107, and in Denver’s blowout win, Minnesota was without Karl-Anthony Towns (KAT actually didn’t play in any of the four games vs. Denver this season).
Both the Timberwolves and Nuggets have versatile defenders, but the Wolves will be missing a huge piece with Jaden McDaniels out for the series.
