Hello from Target Center, where the Wolves tip-off with the Nuggets in just a little bit. Those who had tonight’s game circled and thought you’d get a good look at Allen Iverson tonight instead get former Wolf Chauncey Billups.  He has been, well, quite the good luck charm since returning home to Denver. The Nuggets are 9-3 since acquiring Billups on Nov. 3.

Minnesota, meanwhile, is back home less than 24 hours after Mike Miller’s last nanosecond shot assured the Wolves a victory in Oklahoma City. Fun fact about Miller’s shot: In 20 seasons, the Wolves have now won 20 times thanks to a shot in the final second. Kevin Garnett did it four times. Sam Mitchell and the late Malik Sealy are the only other players to do this more than once for the Wolves.

Here are your starters: Gomes, Big Al, Collins, Miller and Foye for the home squad tonight. It’s Carmelo Anthony, Kenyon Martin, Nene, Dahntay Jones and Billups for Denver.

Booth, Mad Dawg and Ollie are inactive for the Wolves.

Enjoy the game!
