It’s going to be a late Monday night at Ball Arena, but the Nuggets and their fans will have time to catch up on sleep before Game 3.
After the Nuggets and Timberwolves start their first-round series at 1:30 p.m. Saturday at Ball Arena, the second game of Denver’s first-round series against Minnesota won’t tipoff until 8:30 p.m. Monday.
There are a couple of days off before Thursday’s Game 3 in Minneapolis that starts at 7:30 p.m. locally. Game 4 will start a little after 6:30 p.m. MST on April 25.
In the likely event there’s a Game 5, it will be on April 27 at Ball Arena. There are two more full days off before a potential Game 6 in Minnesota on April 30. A Game 7 would be at Ball Arena on May 2. Start times for the final three games of the series are to be determined.
