Nickeil Alexander-Walker hit two free throws with 0.1 seconds left in double overtime, and the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves overcame a 61-point triple-double from Nikola Jokic to beat the Denver Nuggets 140-139.
Minnesota trailed by one with 17.7 seconds left when Denver’s Russell Westbrook stole a pass by Anthony Edwards, but he missed a layup at the other end. The Timberwolves raced down and got the ball to Alexander-Walker, who was fouled by Westbrook on a three-point attempt.
Alexander-Walker made the first two free throws to win it while spoiling a career night from Jokic on Tuesday. The three-time MVP never sat after halftime en route to the first game with at least 60 points in his career. His 61 topped De’Aaron Fox’s 60 for the most in a game this season.
