Warriors aim for Western Conference momentum against Nuggets

The Golden State Warriors will face the Denver Nuggets in an important NBA matchup on Monday. The Warriors have been improving, currently holding a record of 39 wins and 28 losses. They are trying to climb the Western Conference standings. The Nuggets, with 43 wins and 25 losses, are almost tied for the No. 2 seed. However, they have not played well in their recent games. They suffered a heavy loss to the Timberwolves and only narrowly defeated a Lakers team missing key players. Additionally, they lost at home to the Wizards. Despite these challenges, the Nuggets remain mostly healthy. The only key injury is to Aaron Gordon, who is listed as day-to-day with a calf issue. On the other hand, the Warriors are thriving, thanks in part to Jimmy Butler. They have won 12 of their last 13 games, including a close victory against the Knicks, where Stephen Curry scored 28 points. This match marks the second time the two teams have met this season. The Nuggets won their first meeting 119-115 during the NBA’s In-Season Tournament. They will face each other again in Golden State on April 4th.
