Four big games on Sunday, including arguably the most enthralling series of the lot between the Nuggets and Timberwolves, while the Hawks look to push towards a 3-1 lead when they host the Knicks.<\/p>\n
The Timberwolves enter as underdogs in Game 4 despite this being in Minnesota, where they dismantled the Nuggets in Game 3. But you write Denver off at your own risk.<\/p>\n
Can Nikola Jokic produce a masterclass to square the series, or will Minnesota\u2019s athletic wings cause problems again?<\/p>\n
Still hard to understand why Chicago let him go, but Dosunmu has been a revelation off the bench for Minnesota, finishing with 25 points in Game 3.<\/p>\n
He has hit 12+ points in 15 of his last 16 games, averaging 17.1 across that stretch. Denver doesn\u2019t appear to have a clean matchup for his pace and ability to attack the rim.<\/p>\n
Foul trouble limited Edwards to just 23 minutes in Game 3, and he still pulled down five boards.<\/p>\n
He rebounds exceptionally well for a guard, especially in the postseason. He\u2019s averaging eight rebounds per game in this series, including a 10-rebound effort in Game 2.<\/p>\n
With Minnesota looking to hold serve at home, expect Edwards to push towards 40 minutes here.<\/p>\n
The rebound numbers remain ridiculous, and if this stays competitive, Jokic should push past 40 minutes.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s cleared 12+ rebounds in all three games this series and in 21 of his last 25 games playing 20+ minutes.<\/p>\n
