Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets prediction
The Golden State Warriors still have to prove themselves on the road where they’re 6-7 SU and all but one of these wins during this winning streak have come at home. This is a test for the Warriors, especially when they’ve lost 4 straight games to the Nuggets. However, the meeting in early November was decided by three points. Also, we’re getting a bunch of points with a Warriors side that’s gained confidence over the last week. The Nuggets are also fresh off a three game road trip where they played three games in four days, and now they get an early west coast start. Give me the Warriors and the free buckets.
