Brotherhood Playoff Watch: Denver Strikes Back Against Minnesota
But Minnesota is still up 2-1
Former Duke star Wendell Moore is not getting a lot of minutes in Minnesota’s series against the Denver Nuggets, but he’s still part of one of the biggest NBA stories of the year. Unfortunately though, Denver won this game, 117-90.
Nikola Jokic had a monster game with 24 points, 14 rebounds, nine assists, three steals and three blocks.
Realistically, Moore probably isn’t going to get into the rotation at this point barring an injury, but given what we saw at Duke, we know he’s working hard and will be ready if he’s called upon.
On Saturday, Kyrie Irving, Dereck Lively and the Dallas Mavericks will take on Oklahoma City and later, Jayson Tatum will lead the Boston Celtics against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
