Wendell Moore’s season may be down to the last game

As we’ve seen so far in the Minnesota-Denver series, former Duke star Wendell Moore hasn’t gotten off the bench and he didn’t on Tuesday either as the Timberwolves fell 112-97.

It can’t be easy to be on the bench behind a player like Anthony Edwards.

Having said that, Denver has done a much better job of containing Edwards and limited him to 5-15 from the floor and just 18 points as the Nuggets have gone from down 0-2 to 3-2. It’s quite the turnaround.

Nikola Jokic has turned the heat up, hitting for 40 in this one along with 13 assist and seven rebounds.

Game 6 is on Thursday and it might be the end of the season for Moore.

On Wednesday, Jayson Tatum and Boston will try to close out Cleveland while Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively will try to go up 3-2 on Oklahoma City.
