Nuggets Preview
The Chase Center will play host to a Thursday night NBA clash between the Denver Nuggets and the Golden State Warriors. For other NBA action see our NBA Predictions. The Nuggets (50-32) lost in the second round of the playoffs and must improve a defense that ranked in the bottom third of the league last year. Three-time MVP Nikola Jokic makes Denver a perennial title contender and the team has upgraded the talent around him.
The biggest offseason addition for the Nuggets was landing sharp-shooting wing Cam Johnson in a deal that sent Michael Porter Jr. to Brooklyn. Bruce Brown, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Jonas Valanciunas will add plenty of depth to the Denver rotation.
Warriors Preview
The Golden State Warriors have won four NBA titles since 2015 and have plenty of optimism that their championship window has not closed. The Warriors’ trajectory turned at last year’s trade deadline when they landed Jimmy Butler in a trade with Miami. On opening night, Golden State connected on 17-for-40 from long distance and led by as many as 17 points during a 119-109 road triumph against Los Angeles.
Golden State F Jimmy Butler converted all 16 free-throw attempts and finished with a team-high 31 points. Two-time MVP Steph Curry chipped in 23 points (8-8 FT) and four assists. Buddy Hield added 17 points (5-10 3PT) in 22 minutes off the bench.

Nuggets vs Warriors Pick
Golden State G/F Moses Moody (calf) was unable to suit up for the season opener and is listed as questionable for this contest. The Warriors ranked seventh in defensive efficiency last season, so the under is worth a look. The stronger play is for Jokic to assert his dominance and lead the Nuggets to a road victory. Final Score Prediction, Denver Nuggets win 118-110.
