Denver defeated Minnesota 115-107 in Game 4 of the 2023-2024 NBA Playoff Western Conference semifinals (best four out of seven) at the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota on the 13th. Denver, which had previously lost Game 1 and 2 at home, swept all of its away Game 3 and 4 and brought its entire series to square one with two wins and two losses. Minnesota, which had been gaining momentum by beating the Phoenix Suns with four consecutive wins in the first round of the playoffs, lost consecutive games at home, dampening the mood. Game 5 between the two teams will be held at Ball Arena, Denver's home stadium, on the 15th.

Jokic's performance determined everything. Jokic, who struggled with Minnesota's strong defense in the first and second games, began to revive from the third game and regained his true form on the day. Jokic played for about 40 minutes, with 35 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, and three steals.

Notably, the team overwhelmed Gobert, the "Defensive Player of the Year," who had bullied him so much in the first game. Minnesota Twins put forward Karl-Anthony Towns in the final minute of the game to prevent Jokic, and brought up a strategy for Gobert to defend itself, but it was not enough to stop Jokic. Jokic scored 16 points in the fourth quarter alone to quell Minnesota's momentum.

Forward Aaron Gordon and guard Germain (19 points, 8 assists), who made 11 of 12 field goals with Jokic and scored 27 points with an astonishing 91.7 percent success rate, also performed well. Minnesota struggled with "Ace" Anthony Edwards scoring as many as 44 points.
