Timberwolves vs Nuggets Pickswise Expert Predictions

Game Totals Pick
Over 239.0(-110)

On Christmas Day we will see the 3rd meeting this season between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Denver Nuggets. The first 2 of these contests combined for 235 and 241 points, respectively. With the play that the Nuggets have shown of late, we should see the higher scoring version of this matchup on Christmas. 8 of the last 10 games the Nuggets have played in surpassing the combined 240-point mark. The hosts will be coming into this game after combining for 260-points with the Dallas Mavericks, a team in 11th in pace over the last 10 games. With the Timberwolves 12th in that category, we could expect a similar outcome.

The hosts have been 2nd in the league in fast break points per game over the last 10 contests. Against a Timberwolves team that has a couple of traditional bigs in their starting 5 in Rudy Gobert and Julius Randle, it should prove effective once more. However, the team has ranked just 22nd in the league in defensive rating. They have had issues slowing down opposing wings, with Kevin Durant and Cooper Flagg both managing 30 or more points in recent games. Anthony Edwards should be next in line. The hosts have also been the most efficient 3-point shooting team in the NBA over the last 10 games, making 43.3% of their attempts. However, they have let their opponents make 40.3% of shots from deep themselves so expect a high scoring shootout to close out the Christmas slate.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Denver Nuggets prediction: Over 239 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to over 240.

Like most Lithuanians, I started watching basketball from the age of six. I'm based out in London and played basketball at the University of Lincoln here in the UK. I had always had an interest in the NBA but things really took off in the summer of 2010. That year Linas Kleiza led Lithuania to 3rd place at the World Championships and signed with the Toronto Raptors to replace the departing Chris Bosh. I've been a Raptors fan since that day and I've not missed a game since. I've been handicapping games for more than a decade, specializing in player props.

A. Edwards (MIN) - 35+ pts

Nikola Jokic to record a Triple-Double (-135)

The walking triple-double machine Jokic is averaging 28.7 points, 11.6 rebounds and 10.4 assists in the month of December. For the 3rd month in a row he is averaging a triple-double, these are video game type numbers that we are witnessing from the Joker. It is no wonder he and SGA are in a dead heat for the regular season MVP trophy, the Serbian already has 3 of those under his belt, but you could argue statistically that this is his best season as a professional. He’s notched a triple-double 3 times in his last 5 outings, he’s also done it in both meetings against the Timberwolves averaging 26 points, 15.5 rebounds and 10.5 assists.

It’s quite obvious that this match-up just isn’t working out for Rudy Gobert, the Timberwolves rank 2nd for Triple-Doubles allowed to opposing centers this season and 5th for triple-doubles allowed overall. Jokic has hit this line 9 times in 14 outings, that’s a success rate of 64% which is more than enough for me to back him to do it yet again.

Anthony Edwards to score 35+ points (+265)

Ant-Man is a type of player that really wants the spotlight in big moments and it hardly gets bigger during the NBA regular season than Christmas Day. This will be his 2nd time playing on this special day, last year he scored 26 in a winning effort over the Mavericks, there’s no way the Timberwolves are getting a result here with a sub 30 point performance from their best player.

Edwards has been on a scoring binge for a while now – he’s averaging 32 points per game over his last 12 outings, shooting the lights out at 52.2% from the field and an astonishing 44% from three. During this stretch he has eclipsed the 30-point mark 8 times, while in 6 of those he went over 35 which is what we need from him on Thursday. His last visit to Ball Arena saw him go for 34 and 10 rebounds, he’s scored that many points against Denver twice in 4 meetings. With the Nuggets leading the regular season series 2-0 already, you just know he will be extra motivated to do well here.
