While many fans were getting jacked up for KD vs. LeBron this weekend, that fell through; thankfully, we got to enjoy Anthony Edwards vs. Nikola Jokic beforehand. The big man got the better of the young stud to take the series lead, and with Game 2 set to tip off in just hours, we’re here with our best Timberwolves vs. Nuggets predictions for tonight.

To make this Western Conference showdown even more special, we’ve gone beyond Timberwolves vs. Nuggets picks with a guaranteed 10x Novig Sportsbook promo code bonus!

🤔 Timberwolves vs. Nuggets Predictions for NBA Playoffs First Round, 4/20

Hopefully you were here and tailed us for Saturday’s Game 1. We were able to cash our Timberwolves vs. Nuggets predictions to add to our NBA expert picks with Jamal Murray going over 23.5 points. He did so in the third quarter en route to 30 despite missing every single three-pointer that he took!

Murray went 16-for-16 from the charity strike while Jokic notched yet another triple-double in a game that felt even more in control for Denver than the score would suggest. Initially, it felt as though Jaden McDaniels and Julius Randle were going to be able to give Minnesota fans cause for joy, but they ended up with a combined -26 while on the court.

Of course, this series is still far from over and was nothing like the blowouts that we saw yesterday. We need better basketball to start the week, so let’s get into the best bet from our Timberwolves vs. Nuggets predictions.

🔥 Timberwolves vs. Nuggets Best Bet: Anthony Edwards Over 26.5 Points (-102 at Novig)

As mentioned, it was Murray who came through for us in Game 1, but we’re now going to pivot to the Minnesota side of the game. Along with our breakdown for Jamal, we also said that what we’re looking for while watching our Timberwolves vs. Nuggets predictions was how Anthony Edwards looked coming back from injury.

That’s because we had yet to see him get a full workload, but after his 38 minutes on Saturday, we feel good about what we saw. We don’t particularly love going 7-for-19 from the field, but with that not being par for the course for Ant-Man, that’s why we’re confident in making him the focus of our Timberwolves vs. Nuggets predictions.

After all, he averaged over 30 points per game against Denver in the regular season (31.5/game against them last year as well). As great as Jokic is, we’ve picked on their defense the last month or so of the regular season. Edwards also combined for an impressive nine rebounds and seven assists, but he needs to take over the scoreboard for Game 2.

That’s why we’re locking in the best bet from our Timberwolves vs. Nuggets predictions on Anthony Edwards over 26.5 points (-102 at Novig).
