Game Preview

The shorthanded Nuggets lost at home to the Spurs this Wednesday night, 113-106. Though, Jokic, Murray, Michael Porter Jr, Christian Braun and several other players didn’t play.

Russell Westbrook scored 30 points with 11 boards and six assists, while Hunter Tyson added 18. DeAndre Jordan had a double-double with 10 points and 17 boards. Jalen Picket posted a triple-double 17 points, 11 boards, and 10 assists.

The Warriors had a nasty stretch, playing six straight road games. The last was in LA against the Lakers 24 hours ago. Now, they need to compete with the Nuggets, who lost their previous event and need a win.

Golden State is 23-14 at home this year, which is not as impressive as in the past but still respectable. Steph Curry scores 24.4 points and shoots, shooting 92.9%free-throw free throw line.

Nuggets vs. Warriors Head to Head

The Nuggets are 9-1 in the last 10 games against the Golden State Warriors. This year, they won 119-115 at home and 114-105 in San Francisco.

Nuggets vs. Warriors Predictions

The Nuggets showed signs of struggle, though the last defeat was caused due to absences. Warriors have to regenerate as fast as possible. Overall, this match will be tough to predict due to injuries in Denver. If at least three of the previously absent players (including Jokic) aren’t playing, they can’t beat the Warriors on the road.
