Favors Under

This year, the opposing team's starting SFs have shot 40.6% on field goals (3rd-worst in the NBA) vs. the Timberwolves, creating a difficult matchup.
The 3rd-least up-tempo pace home team in the league over the last 5 games has been the Nuggets.
The Nuggets are expected to experience a decrease in possessions today from facing the 6th-least up-tempo pace-of-play visiting offense in the NBA over the last 20 games (the Timberwolves).
The Denver Nuggets have been the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
The matchup against the Timberwolves is a tough one for getting to the charity stripe; the opposition's starting SFs have attempted a mere 2.4 free throws per game this year (10th-least in the NBA).
