Game 7 of Minnesota Timberwolves vs Denver Nuggets is going to be one of the most hyped-up games of the playoffs this year. The Timberwolves dominated the Nuggets 115-70 in Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinals on Thursday to force a decisive series finale.
Both the teams are ready to meet in a win-or-go-home showdown in Game 7 at Ball Arena in Denver on Sunday night. Given what is at stake for the Nuggets, it is highly likely that Nikola Jokic will be aggressive on the scoring end and attempt to score on the majority of plays.
Jamal Murray is perhaps the biggest factor contributing to the Nuggets' fate in this series. Murray hasn’t had a great series against the Timberwolves this season. He has shot under 25% from the field twice in this series. However, he has also shown his ability to bounce back when they have needed him the most.
On the other hand, it is one of the games that would potentially solidify Anthony Edwards' status as the future face of the league. Edwards will look to get aggressive from the start and set the tone early for his team.

The return of Mike Conley Jr. was the biggest factor in Minnesota pushing the restart button after going down 3-2 in the series. Conely took care of the ball, made great reads, got everyone involved and when the time came, he hit some crucial shots.
