Nikola Jokic u29.5 Points Scored (-112)
Nikola Jokic has yet to score more than 27 points in a game in this series, and with the Timberwolves needing to find their most aggressive defense of the series in this Game 6, there is no reason to think Jokic is suddenly going to find the energy reserves to score 30.
While Nikola Jokic has yet to score more than 27 points in a game in this series, he has handed out double-digit assists in two games, both of Denver’s wins, which also both happened to be in Denver. There is distinct logic in expecting the Nuggets’ role players to come up short on the road, thus turning a few potential Jokic assists into nothing but missed shots. And such missed shots should help Minnesota’s transition game, which needs to be a key piece of the Timberwolves’ offense.
This is the Timberwolves’ best chance, and do not underestimate their ability to adjust. That is the hallmark of any team enjoying postseason success in the modern NBA, and Minnesota reached the Western Conference Finals in each of the last two springs. Some adjustments were clearly made. If this week’s adjustment catches the Nuggets off guard, that should yield a Timberwolves win.
