Premium Pick

Minnesota pulled out a 114-108 overtime win in Game 4 to stave off elimination, but the Nuggets now are back home and ready to complete a Gentlemen's Sweep of the Timberwolves, who otherwise were clearly outplayed the first three games. Nikola Jokic scored 43 points for Denver, which scored the final 12 points of regulation to force OT. The Nuggets have covered the spread seven of their past 10 games overall and four of five against the Timberwolves. Denver has a .513 field goal percentage overall and .392 from 3-point distance at home this season while allowing opponents .459 and .327. Sunday's game would have stayed UNDER if the game hadn't gone to overtime and Minnesota has stayed UNDER five of seven road games, and five of six following a win. Denver is 12-4-1 UNDER its past 17 games and the Timberwolves have averaged only 49 points before the half in the series. Dual Max: Lay the points with the Nuggets (Max Play), and bet this game UNDER in the first-half (Max Play).
