Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Denver Nuggets NBA Pick Prediction 12/15/2021 by Tony T.
Timberwolves at Nuggets—D'Angelo Russell is questionable with soreness. He returned Sunday after missing the past three games. For Denver Aaron Gordon likely playing and Will Barton probable so the core will start. Minnesota broke a five game losing streak after their 116-111 road victory to Portland Trailblazers. Denver has won three of four with the 113-107 home win to Washington Wizards. It was their first home game after a seven game road trip. In that six game span the Timberwolves defense has been poor by allowing 117 points per 100 possessions. On offense they are 26th in that period scoring 106.6 per 100 possessions. Three of those games featured Russell in the lineup. Play Denver -4.5.
