The NBA Playoffs are back in action Thursday night!
After dropping the first two games in Denver, the Nuggets have rattled off three straight impressive wins to take a commanding 3-2 series lead. Tonight, the action heads back to Minnesota where the Wolves will have to win to keep their championship dreams alive.
In this article, I’m going to break down my favorite NBA player prop on DraftKings Sportsbook for Game 6 of Nuggets-Timberwolves. Without further ado, let’s get into it.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Denver Nuggets — Game 6
Aaron Gordon Over 13.5 Points (-125)
Gordon has been a machine for the Nuggets in this series.
Anyone who watched Denver’s championship run last year understands how important Gordon is to their title aspirations. Not only is he a force on the defensive side of the floor, but he’s arguably the best off-ball cutter in the league, which makes him unbelievably dangerous with the ball in Nikola Jokic’s hands.
Gordon isn’t a particularly potent scorer, but he’s ultra efficient and understands when to take advantage of matchups. The 6’8 forward has forced the issue a bit more offensively in this series, racking up at least 18 points in three of his last four games.
With Michael Porter Jr. continuing to struggle in the scoring department and Jamal Murray not playing up to his standards, Gordon has become the de facto No. 2 option at times for Denver. Assuming he sees a similar workload tonight, the 28-year-old should have little trouble racking up at least 14 points.
