Nuggets win in Minnesota led by Nikola Jokic's triple-double

With their 120-111 victory at Target Center, the Nuggets took a 3-0 lead in this series and have all but made the Wolves a minor speed bump on their path to a potential championship. They can finish the job Sunday in Minnesota. The Wolves are now one game away from Denver putting them out of their misery in a trying, tumultuous season. No NBA team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit in a playoff series.Source: Chris Hine, Star Tribune @ Minneapolis Star-Tribune What’s the buzz on Twitter?
