The Timberwolves return home down 0-2 in their best-of-seven series against the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the NBA Playoffs.
Minnesota was paced by Anthony Edwards’ 41-points, a playoff-record for the franchise, in a 122-113 loss to the Nuggets Wednesday night in game two. Jamal Murray led Denver with 40 points.

Game three is set for an 8:30 p.m. start Friday night at Target Center.
