Warriors vs. Nuggets Predictions
In the 2022-23 season, the Warriors went 44-38 overall and 30-22 in Western Conference action. Golden State averaged 118.9 points per game, 44.9 in the paint, 17.5 off of turnovers, and 14.5 on fast breaks.
Stephen Curry leads the Dubs in scoring through seven games of the 2023-24 season, averaging 30.9 points per game. Chris Paul is also averaging a team-high 7.8 assists.
Although the Warriors’ five-game win streak was snapped on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, they bounced back Monday night versus the Detroit Pistons. Curry led Golden State in scoring with 34 points.
On the other side, Denver enters this matchup on a five-game home winning streak. In the 2022-23 season, the Nuggets finished 53-29 overall and 34-18 in the conference on their way to winning their first NBA championship.
Last season, the Nuggets also averaged 115.8 points per game, 55 in the paint, 16 off of turnovers, and 16.2 on fast breaks. Denver has won its last three straight games, including back-to-back wins over the Dallas Mavericks and Chicago Bulls.
Nikola Jokic leads Denver in points (28.4), rebounds (12.9), and assists (8.4) per game this season. Per ESPN’s Basketball Power Index, the Nuggets hold a 58.6% chance of defeating Golden State. The Nuggets are still without Jamal Murray, but the reigning champs continue to win. They should add another W over the Dubs.
