NBA 2021-22 will see Denver Nuggets facing off against Minnesota Lynx on Thursday, 16 December 2021 at 07:30 AM IST

Nikola Jokic provides a huge lift in the middle, scrapping around 25-30 points, 10-15 rebounds, and 8-12 assists on a regular.

Nuggets run the offense through him, feeding him in the post, where he can show his face-up, low-post, or off-the-dribble game while passing the ball around at a high clip.

This type of play benefits scorers like Morris, Gordon, and Barton who can either find openings off the dribble on the perimeter or can slash to the rim for easy finishes.

Denver runs a methodical offense through Jokic who is also the lifeline on the defensive end with his size and grit. When will Murray return! We haven’t seen him for more than half a year now.

If a team like Nuggets lacks depth at this point, it is understandable, two of their star players and one of their key bench players are hurt.

But what about Minnesota? The team has been largely healthy considering the pandemic scenario.

What has that translated to! Not much, the team has two 20+ points scorers in Karl and Anthony Edwards, a 17-19 points scorer with Russell, Malik Beasley is the only other double-digit scorer but forget the offense, it is the defense that is holding this young team back. Can Patrick Beverley inject some life into this wayward unit?
