Hours after a chippy play marred the Boston Celtics' 124–109 win over the Charlotte Hornets, another such play colored the Minnesota Timberwolves' 119–116 win over the Denver Nuggets.
With a little under six minutes left in the contest and his team up 108–102, Nuggets guard Christian Braun spotted an open path to the basket and drove into the paint. He was met by Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert, but threw down a monstrous dunk anyway.
