A 27-point win in Game 3 eased some of the pressure off the Denver Nuggets, but they still have a lot of work to do as they head into Target Center for Game 4 of their series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Tip-off is at 8 pm ET on TNT, I've prepared a Same Game Parlay which is available below.

DEN Nuggets ML (+118)
Nikola Jokic and co. had us scared there for a second after falling down 2-0 in this series. Fresh off of his 3rd MVP award, the Serbian big man responded in a big way leading his Nuggets to a convincing 27 point win in Game 3. It wasn't just the Joker though, Jamal Murray had the best game of his series with 24 points, while Michael Porter Jr. also delivered 21 points on just 10 field goal attempts. If the Nuggets come out with the same sense of urgency tonight like they did in Friday's game, I am convinced they can even this series before it shifts to Denver for Game 5. Limiting turnovers, especially in the first half, could be the key. Minnesota rushed quite a few of their shots in Game 3 and that's where their inexperienced showed. I have the defending champions stepping it up a notch once again and levelling this series before a crucial Game 5 takes place at Ball Arena.
