What happened: On The Lowe Post, Zach Lowe examined the execution of the Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic two-man game alongside the early performance of Denver's supporting cast. Lowe also broke down Monday's overtime matchup in which the Cleveland Cavaliers edged the Minnesota Timberwolves, 127-125.

Why it matters: Despite having Murray and Jokic established as an All-NBA duo, uneven rotation production has left Denver below .500 through three games. Meanwhile, Cleveland's two-point victory pushed the Cavaliers to 2-1 while handing the 3-1 Timberwolves their first loss of the 2026-27 regular season.

What to watch: Denver looks to stabilize its secondary unit and get back to .500 in its next outing, while Cleveland and Minnesota build on their winning starts.
