Can’t believe I missed T-Wolves at Nuggets today. I was in the pool. I forgot it was on. Don’t like missing big matchups. That’s OK. They’ll meet in the Conference Finals. pic.twitter.com/xVdtHMlcWQ – 1:31 AM

Nuggets lost 5 of their last 7 before the playoffs last year, coasted into the postseason, then flipped the switch in Game 1 vs. Minnesota. The rest is history. They could follow the same script this season. Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s in the back of their mind right now. – 11:27 PM

Timberwolves start 5 of 7 with the only misses coming from 3 and lead 14-11 four minutes into the first quarter. Michael Porter Jr. has eight of Denver’s points off a couple of 3s and a pair of free throws. – 9:17 PM

Alright Nuggets fans, it’s time for Game 74 of the season vs the Minnesota Timberwolves.
No Murray. No KAT. Could this be a Western Conference Finals preview?

Jamal Murray went through a pregame shooting workout again tonight. Again, he looked pretty good, but Michael Malone said pregame that he’s not yet cleared to play. It sounds like Murray will miss Sunday’s game vs. Cleveland but will return before the playoffs start. – 8:40 PM

Jamal Murray will not play tonight for Denver.
Malone says he’s getting better but Murray isn’t ready to go out and compete at the level the Nuggets need him to quite yet.
It’s a combination of ankle, shins, and knee bothering him. – 7:19 PM
