The Minnesota Timberwolves look to complete a perfect three-game road trip in Denver – but they’ll have to do it against a team seeking a 4-game series sweep against them this season.
Offense won’t be a problem in this one, so my Timberwolves vs. Nuggets prediction and top NBA picks are targeting the Over Sunday, March 1.
Timberwolves vs Nuggets prediction
Timberwolves vs Nuggets best bet: Over 237.5 (-110)
The Denver Nuggets enter this one as the NBA’s highest-scoring team, putting up 120.5 points per game, and they’ll be a little surly after getting dumped by the OKC Thunder in OT last time out.
The Minnesota Timberwolves — the fifth-highest scoring team in the league — haven’t played since dumping the Clippers on Thursday, giving them a few days off to prepare for that mile-high altitude.
These teams have cashed the Over in three of the last four games they’ve played each other.
The Nuggets have hit the Over in four of their last five, while the T-Wolves have topped it in four of six.
