The challenge was foreseen to be an epic basketball show as both victorious teams would secure the eighth and final position to the playoffs.

The match was fantastic since the start of the match, where both teams managed to score.

At the end of the match there was no winner and in the last few minutes Denver failed to accomplish in crucial moments and Minnesota made the local fans happy.

The best in this meeting was Jimmy Butler with 31 point point, five rebounds and five assists, and was assisted by Karl Anthony Towns with 26 points and 14 rebounds.

For Denver was Serbia’s Nikola Jokic who scored 35 points and 10 rebounds, and was assisted by Barton with 24 points and Jamal Murray with 20 points, but these were insufficient for that big win at the end.

Thus, Minnesota secured a place in the playoffs after 14 years of total disappointment, as Denver will watch from the TV post season of the NBA after many beautiful full-face matches. / Flashscore24 /
