The Denver Nuggets came out on top in the fountain of youth game, but it did not come easily.

The Denver Nuggets were finally able to close out a game to secure their second win of the year.

While there were many concerning factors such as late-game execution, sloppiness, and poor shooting from a couple players, this was a solid win. Denver, in what was a somewhat surprising win, were able to prevail over debatably the best young, up and coming squad in the league.

Hopefully this win builds up the confidence of this young core going forward. While it was a great game from both teams, one has to be curious about each individuals play.

We will analyze and assess a grade to each player for this fountain of youth game and even give a grade to the promising Timberwolves squad.
