The Denver Nuggets advanced to the Western Conference semifinals with a 110-89 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 6 on Tuesday night.
Nikola Jokic led the Nuggets with 30 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists, while Jamal Murray added 26 points and Aaron Gordon had 18 points.
The Timberwolves were led by Karl-Anthony Towns, who had 28 points and 10 rebounds.
The Nuggets will now face the Phoenix Suns in the Western Conference semifinals, which begin on Thursday night.
The Timberwolves' season ended with a disappointing loss, but they can take solace in the fact that they made it to the playoffs for the first time since 2018.
The Nuggets, on the other hand, are looking to make a deep playoff run this year after winning the NBA championship in 2022.
