Timberwolves Rout Nuggets 115-95, Extend Winning Streak

The Minnesota Timberwolves extended their winning streak to six games by defeating the Denver Nuggets 115-95, with Anthony Edwards leading the team with 29 points and Julius Randle contributing 25. The Timberwolves' strong defense was key, limiting the Nuggets to 40.4% shooting and below their league averages in assists and points in the paint. Nikola Jokic was the standout for Denver, scoring 34 points, but the team struggled overall, particularly with Jamal Murray, who finished with only 12 points after a poor shooting performance. Minnesota's bench also outperformed Denver's, scoring 26 points compared to 14. The victory marked the Timberwolves' third win against the Nuggets this season, with their next game scheduled for April 1. Both teams will play again on Friday, with the Timberwolves facing the Orlando Magic and the Nuggets hosting the Los Angeles Lakers.
