The Minnesota Timberwolves will face the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference semi-finals of the NBA play-offs after eliminating the Denver Nuggets.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Timberwolves won game six 110-98 to win the best-of-seven series 4-2<\/p>\n

In a tight contest, the Timberwolves led 57-50 before Denver’s Nikola Jokic scored 14 points in the third quarter to set up a close finish.<\/p>\n

Jokic, voted the NBA’s Most Valuable Player on three occasions, ended the game with 28 points and 10 assists, but his performance was overshadowed by his involvement in an altercation with Timberwolves’ Jaylen Clark.<\/p>\n

The pair pushed one another with just under 10 minutes to play, which resulted in a technical foul for both players alongside Timberwolves’ Naz Reid, who also became involved in the incident. <\/p>\n

This comes after Jokic was ejected for instigating a scuffle at the end of game four.<\/a> After the defeat, the Serbian said: “I needed to play better. I must play better.” <\/p>\n

Jaden McDaniels starred for the Timberwolves with a career-high 32 points, and they could be boosted by the return of Anthony Edwards from injury for Monday’s opener against the Spurs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
