Denver Nuggets Form

Denver head to Minnesota on the back of a defeat in Dallas that brought an end to a five-game win streak.

The Nuggets remain a team in excellent form though, having won 11 of their 13 games since the All-Star break.

They returned to action with a six-game streak that was halted by a 117-107 overtime defeat when they hosted Phoenix.

Denver rebounded quickly as they beat Boston 115-109, Utah 142-121 and Toronto 125-119 at home, and they then went out on the road to win 100-88 in Miami and 117-106 at San Antonio.

The Nuggets failed to make it six-in-a-row though, as a buzzer-beater from Kyrie Irving condemned them to a 107-105 defeat in Dallas.

Minnesota Timberwolves Form

Minnesota enter this matchup having recorded their fourth consecutive victory just last night.

The Timberwolves ended February with a three-game win streak, but started March with back-to-back home defeats.

They lost 124-120 in overtime to Sacramento and 89-88 to the LA Clippers, before steadying the ship with a 119-114 victory over Portland and a 113-111 win in Indiana.

Minnesota were unable to keep that winning run going on the road, losing 113-104 in overtime in Cleveland and 120-109 at the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Timberwolves bounced back before leaving LA though, beating the Clippers 118-100, and they then travelled to Utah to take down the Jazz in back-to-back meetings, 119-100 and 114-104.

Verdict

Denver lost last time out, but they are still in good form and they are coming up against a short-handed Minnesota team, so we like the Nuggets' chances of rebounding.
