Denver Nuggets vs Minnesota Timberwolves Full Highlights 3rd QTR | Mar 19 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

Marlo with Katie wiie as we start the third quarter the Nuggets scored 35 points in each of the first two quarters so they’re having no problems there but Minnesota continues to score also their first shot by slowmo is good the Denver Nuggets were able to score 38

Points in the paint in that first half and that’s the most Minnesota has allowed in any first half at home this year yeah you’ve mentioned that Minnesota has the top rated defense only allow 106 and half per game and they’re the number one offensive rating team or

Defensive rating team I should say and Murray stays with it lays it in 72- 57 one interesting thing uh we mentioned that the Minnesota Squad had six offensive rebounds in the first quarter well at the half they had five offensive rebounds so the Nugget did a good job in limiting them to minus

One offensive rebounds actually it was just a correction but isn’t Ming there doesn’t seem like it does [Applause] it and that’s going to be a nuggets turnover there you heard Bonnie tell Scott Hastings there the turnovers were also something the Nuggets talked about and nine turnovers for 14 points in this

Game so far just trying to do too much at times against the defense that’s very active now Edwards Long Range that’s good and we’re very close to a Malone timeout so 72- 63 [Applause] Minnesota cuts the lead to nine Murray coming in over to Porter Porter side

Steps for three got a good look rattles out Edwards has it Edwards stuttering in the lane right up in the change of speed change of direction that Anthony Edwards the gift that he possesses when it comes to that is so fun to watch it’s also so difficult to guard which is why you

Can’t let him get going early in transition 10 to two run for Minnesota opening up here Murray gets a good screen got a straightway three that’s no oh I was going to say no good unless he banks it in and Murray did how about that so 7565 lead back up to

10 couple of teams battling at the top of the Western Conference that pass is deflected slow mo got it he’ll challenge Jamal Murray Kyle Anderson at 67 in the lane h no good it wasn’t an offensive rebound but uh there was an opportunity given away there now Anderson into the lane and

He’s got it so it cost him two points there and Michel Malone calls timeout for six they’ve got 12 points nuggets two for four just Five [Applause] Points the Nugget trying to get Maka yic in ball he’s doubled they’re going to live with that now jic lost the [Applause]

Handle no towns no goar Nas Reed also out so Minnesota missing three talented bigs and Edwards scores tough turnaround jumper for Anthony Edwards right there Jamal Murray had a hand in his face but Anthony Edwards He’s been cooking in this game so far he’s already got 21

Points Edward is listed at 6’4 but he plays much bigger than that now Porter screams at three that’s no good and the nuggets are stone cold here in the third quarter timbero is getting some momentum trying to keep Edwards away but he is shaking and baking folks tough shot there he finally missed

One not really looking to facilitate would you say no and he’s looking to create his own shot and Aaron Gordon did a great job of just staying calm staying poised and staying down in that situation dou green there Murray on the hesi and he lost it it was tapped slowmo gets a

Couple 16 to5 they’ve been outscored here in the third quarter so far let’s go over to Hasting yeah Chris just what you were saying remember was that third quarter in Dallas Denver was playing pretty comfortably and then Allon only scored 18 and really couldn’t find the rim at all Caldwell Pope double pumps

His shot is no good and Nicole yic waiting but not getting the basketball much so far here in the third this is also the part of the road trip where you really start to feel your legs it’s the last game before you go home kind of thinking about but we played five

Minutes and yic has not taking a shot he was 9 for 15 in that first half let’s see if they can get him the ball this time now 7572 and off Murray Murray quarters in the lane flips it up no Gordon there and he’s F minutes into the third Quarter Gordon long range three no joic has It the Nuggets basketball in a five-point lead y in the lane gets it back playing the two-man game joic at the Baseline nope look like the the fourth Fade Away we’ve seen from Ni I think he’s made one of those tonight but he can just get whatever shot he wants he shouldn’t

Settle for that especially with a smaller defensive lineup by Minnesota little floer that’s no good Murray’s got the rebound Jal Murray 16 points eight assists tonight going to play two man game around the screen McDaniels on in tight indic great pass and that’s the result there you go that’s that’s the

Smooth operating Denver Nuggets offense when they go to that two-man game and they’re patient looking for whatever they want they can get exactly to their spot eighth assist for JAL Murray 22 points now for yic his first two points here in the third now Edwards Edwards that’s the shot you want him to

Take he made it but that’s the shot it you live with it and it’s just a contested mid-range pullup that he didn’t really have to do a whole lot of dribbling for and he’s going to make those 23 for Edwards and once again five-point lead roic being guarded

By Kyle Anderson now Murray’s in the lane and the nuggets come up empty McDaniels on the Run and the g that’s have the sign now mlin is in to guard Reggie Jackson bridgie to the Lane good set up for Porter he should make this and he does start calling out his threes from

Now on perfect predict it before it happens 82 manifested into happening 74 eight-point lead for the Nuggets now wide open look for Monte Morris and he rles at home Monte Morris played four years at Iowa State his 14th game with Minnesota good pick up for them he’s a favorite of Tim

Conley the general manager from Minnesota and the one time GM for the Denver Nuggets in the lane Reggie over to callwell PO he sets he fires the three that’s way short Edwards has it Reggie Jackson stays down Edwards cranks it up no good Porter the rebound just the second rebound for

Porter yic has 11 Jordon has 20 nuggets trap and McDaniels throws it off Porter out of bounds ends up being a Michael quarter Jun turnover there and you see the length of Minnesota really making its impact felt like Daniels knows that the nuggets are trying to get the ball

Into niic especially in transition situations what you can’t do is be
