Anthony Edwards talks Nuggets rivalry, Nickeil Alexander-Walker and 3-pointers after Friday's win The Timberwolves star had a lot to say after Friday’s win over the Denver Nuggets.

Five takeaways from the Wolves' close win over the Nuggets Minnesota escaped with a victory after trailing late in the fourth quarter on Friday night.

Another steady effort Friday Braun supplied 14 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds and two assists across 36 minutes during Friday's 119-116 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact The third-year wing appears headed for a breakout campaign as he settles into the starting two-guard role for Denver. Braun has scored in double digits in all five games to begin the season and pulled down seven boards in three of those contests, while Friday's contest was the first in which he didn't record at least two combined steals and blocks.

Drops 26 in Friday's loss Porter accumulated 26 points (11-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 39 minutes during Friday's 119-116 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact It was Porter's best scoring performance of the young season, as he drained at least three three-pointers for the third time in five contests. After a cold start from beyond the arc, the 26-year-old forward has gone 7-for-14 from downtown over the last two games. Porter's also been busier than usual on the glass -- his 7.4 boards per game would be a career high, and he's pulled down at least five rebounds in every appearance so far.

Just misses triple-double Friday Jokic produced 26 points (8-16 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 8-10 FT), nine rebounds, 13 assists, one block and three steals over 40 minutes during Friday's 119-116 loss to Minnesota.

Impact The perennial MVP candidate came within a board of his third triple-double in five games to begin the campaign. Jokic has never averaged a triple-double over a full season, but he's pulling it off so far, delivering 30.4 points, 11.6 rebounds and 10.0 assists a contest while adding 2.6 threes, 1.6 steals and 1.2 blocks. Jamal Murray (concussion) left Friday's game early, so Jokic could take on an even bigger offensive load in the short term.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Big double-double in loss Gordon chipped in 31 points (11-18 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Friday's 119-116 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact The veteran forward led all scorers on the night, dropping 30-plus points for the first time this season while recording his second double-double in five games. Gordon has had an impressive start to the campaign, averaging 18.6 points and 8.2 rebounds per game -- marks which would both be career highs -- and he could see his usage increase in the short term if Jamal Murray (concussion) misses some time.
