Game Preview
The Nuggets haven’t lost much over the past month, but one of those setbacks was in Minnesota on Jan. 2. It was one of just three losses Denver has suffered since Dec. 6, 2022, and the Nuggets get a chance for some payback when it hosts the Timberwolves on Wednesday night.
Denver will be playing back-to-back home games after beating Portland 122-113 on Tuesday night without head coach Michael Malone. Malone was placed in the NBA’s health and safety protocol Tuesday morning.
Nuggets assistant David Adelman served as the acting head coach and will likely stay in that role Wednesday night.
