The Nuggets entered the matchup needing a win to stay alive in the West Group, but struggled to contain Curry and the Warriors’ perimeter shooting. Despite a strong effort from Nikola Jokic, who has averaged a triple-double over his last ten games against the Warriors, Denver could not overcome Golden State’s balanced attack.
Earlier in the season, these teams met in a high-scoring overtime thriller, with Curry posting 42 points in a 137-131 Warriors win. The Warriors now lead the season series 2-0. The Nuggets, who have been shooting just 33.5% from beyond the arc (22nd in the league), continued to struggle from deep, an issue that has hampered their offense despite Jokic’s individual brilliance.
For the Warriors, this victory extends a winning streak that has seen key contributions from Moses Moody and Buddy Hield, as well as solid defense from Draymond Green and Gary Payton II. The win gives Golden State momentum as they continue their NBA Cup campaign, while Denver faces pressure to improve their shooting if they hope to advance.
The next meeting between these two teams will be crucial for postseason seeding and could feature more high-level performances from stars on both sides.
