The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves will clash tonight in an anticipated matchup, both teams tied at 2-2 for the season. The Nuggets have listed six players on their injury report, including key players Vlatko Cancar (probable with a right ankle sprain) and Aaron Gordon (probable with left ankle soreness). Other players such as PJ Hall, DaRon Holmes II, Spencer Jones, and Jalen Pickett are also out, with several on G League assignments or two-way contracts.
The Timberwolves have three players listed on their injury report: Jaylen Clark, Jesse Edwards, and Leonard Miller, all on G League assignments or two-way contracts.
Both teams are evenly matched, having split their past two regular seasons, and the Timberwolves previously knocked the Nuggets out of the playoffs in a seven-game series. Tonight’s game, set for 9:30 p.m. EST, could set the tone for the season as these division rivals aim to pull ahead in the standings.
