5 Takeaways From Denver's Hot-Shooting Game 4 Win

Regaining Home-Court Advantage

After losing the first two games of the series at home, the defending Denver Nuggets rebounded in Game 4 with a 115-107 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves, regaining home-court advantage in the Western Conference semifinals.

Jokic's Consistent Dominance

Reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic continued to showcase his dominance, recording 30 points, 16 rebounds, and 7 assists. His all-around performance kept the Nuggets in control throughout the game.

Murray's Return to Form

Jamal Murray, who had been struggling in the playoffs, bounced back with a strong performance, scoring 24 points on 6-of-12 shooting. His contribution provided a much-needed boost to Denver's offense.

Red-Hot Shooting

The Nuggets shot an impressive 52.9% from the field and 46.2% from three-point range. Their balanced scoring attack, with six players scoring in double figures, proved too much for the Timberwolves to overcome.

Missed Free Throws Nearly Costly

Despite their impressive shooting, the Nuggets missed a staggering 15 free throws, including several crucial attempts in the final minutes. Fortunately, the Timberwolves were unable to capitalize on their opponent's mistakes.
