Denver Looks to Advance, Minnesota Aims to Upset
The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves are set to face off in a highly anticipated first-round playoff series. The Nuggets, who finished the regular season with the Western Conference's best record, will be looking to advance to the second round. The Timberwolves, on the other hand, are hoping to pull off an upset and make a run in the playoffs.

The Nuggets will be led by reigning MVP Nikola Jokic, who is one of the most dominant players in the NBA. Jokic averaged 27.1 points, 13.8 rebounds, and 7.9 assists per game during the regular season.
