Anthony Edwards scored 34 points with nine assists to lead Minnesota. In the process, he became Minnesota's franchise leader in 3-pointers made, jumping past Karl-Anthony Towns with 976 career triples. Edwards also set the mark with some flash, nailing this 3 from the center-court logo:
Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic had one of the greatest five-game stretches of basketball in the history of the sport. For five games straight, Jokic achi
While Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to lead the NBA MVP rankings, Nikola Jokic's triple-double average can't be ignored.
More like a quarterback’s pass than a three-pointer, Nikola Jokić’s scarcely believable 66-foot shot pretty much summed up his historic performance in the Denver Nuggets’ 132-123 win over the Sacramento Kings.
The Minnesota Timberwolves continue to have the Denver Nuggets' number. Minnesota cruised to a 133-104 victory over the Nuggets on Saturday—improving to
The Minnesota Timberwolves aren't that far from replicating last year's success. Dominating Denver on Saturday is evidence of that.
Jokić became the first player to get 30 points, 20 rebounds and 15 assists in an NBA game since Wilt Chamberlain.

Nikola Jokic's historic first half and triple-double couldn’t save the Nuggets as the Bulls' hot shooting sealed a 129-121 win.
Of course, fans are used to seeing Jokić make incredible passes, but this time it was a shot that sent the NBA world into a frenzy. Jokić pulled off a nearly full court shot to beat the buzzer at the end of the third quarter that put Denver up 110-85.
Towns managed to hold Jokić to just 59 points on 44 percent shooting and 19 percent shooting from three during the second round of the NBA Playoffs in 2024. The series between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Nuggets went to seven games, so holding him to just 59 points is a pretty huge feat.
Jokić is putting up MVP-caliber numbers yet again this season, averaging 30.6 points, 13.2 rebounds, and a career-high 9.9 assists, playing in 34 of the Nuggets' 40 games so far this season. He has his team squarely in the middle of the playoff picture in the West, sitting in the 4th seed with a 24-16 record.
