Our Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets Prediction

Golden State may have the slight advantage of having already played a game; however, they could be overmatched against Denver. The Nuggets do have a few injury concerns, including Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon. That being said, none of the injuries appear to be major, and all three players seem likely to play.

The Nuggets beat the Warriors in two of the three regular-season meetings last season, and overall, have a deeper team with several more playmakers. Denver also arguably has the best player on the court in Nikola Jokic; therefore, our Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets prediction is: Denver Nuggets ML.
