Nikola Jokic's Status for Nuggets vs. Timberwolves Revealed
The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves are set to face off in a massive game on Tuesday night. Entering this game tied for second place in the Western Conference standings, the Timberwolves and Nuggets are both a half-game back of the first place Oklahoma City Thunder, and are both trying to run down that spot.
The Timberwolves have won three-straight games despite being without Karl-Anthony Towns, and the Nuggets are coming off of a tough loss to the Dallas Mavericks. Falling to Kyrie Irving's incredible game-winning buzzer beater, the Nuggets are trying to get back in the win column.
Both teams have released their injury reports for this game, and Nikola Jokic is not listed, meaning he is available to play. The status of Anthony Edwards will be one to watch for, as he is currently listed as questionable, but the Nuggets do not have any big names on their injury report.
As previously mentioned, this is a huge game between two Western Conference contenders, and it could go a long way towards deciding who finishes where in the standings. Understanding this, both Minnesota and Denver will be approaching this game with a playoff-like intensity, which should make for a very exciting matchup.
The Nuggets and Timberwolves are scheduled to begin play at 6:00 PM PT in a game that is televised on NBA TV.
