Denver Nuggets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Game 6 Prediction

Christian Braun has played a huge part in Denver’s comeback this series and as a result he has seen his minutes increase significantly.

Over the last two games, Braun has played 28 and 25 minutes and has recorded 17 and 15 PRA. Coach Malone really trusts him and he’s been taking Michael Porter Jr.’s minutes as of late as we’ve seen Braun in to close games for his defense and rebounding.

Coach Malone had great things to say about him after Game 5, “CB has been great, that’s two games in a row I’ve closed with him. I think his defense, his rebounding…hustle plays, his aggression, his toughness, his physicality and I love his confidence, man.”

He’s had arguably the most success guarding Anthony Edwards this series and I’d expect we see around 20-28 minutes again in Game 6. When Braun plays 18+ minutes he has 11+ PRA in 72% of games this season (12+ in eight straight on the road).

Denver Nuggets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Game 6 Player Prop Picks

(DEN) Christian Braun Over 10.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-110 @ Bet365) (1.1 Units)

10+ Points (+340 @ FanDuel) (.25 Units)
