The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves have finalized their injury reports and starting lineups.
On Sunday evening, the Minnesota Timberwolves are hosting the Denver Nuggets at the Target Center for Game 4 of their first-round playoff series.
For the game, both teams have finalized their injury reports and starting lineups.
The Nuggets have no one on their injury report, so they are fully healthy for Game 4.
Meanwhile, the Timberwolves will be without Naz Reid and Jaden McDaniels.
Jaylen Nowell and Josh Minott have both been upgraded to available, as they are not on the final injury report.
The starting lineups for both teams have been relayed by Underdog NBA.
Underdog NBA: “Lineup alert: Nuggets will start Murray, Caldwell-Pope, Porter Jr., Gordon, Jokic on Sunday.”
Underdog NBA: “Lineup alert: Wolves will start Conley, Edwards, Alexander-Walker, Towns, Gobert on Sunday.”
The Nuggets have a 3-0 lead in the series, so they can sweep the Timberwolves and advance to the second round with a victory.
If the Timberwolves survive, Game 5 will be played in Denver on Tuesday evening.
Last year, the Nuggets dealt with injuries and lost in the first round.
Now that they are healthy, they will have an excellent chance to pull off a deep run.
The Nuggets are the first seed in the Western Conference and went 53-29 during the regular season.
As for the Timberwolves, they have had a disappointing year.
They made the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2018 (last year) and traded for three-time NBA All-Star Rudy Gobert over the offseason.
However, they are on the verge of losing in the first round of the playoffs (and went 42-40 during the season).
The winner of the series will face off with either the Los Angeles Clippers or Phoenix Suns.
