Golden State Warriors and
Denver Nuggets will play tonight one of the most interesting games of Sunday in the NBA. Both franchises need the victory to continue with a positive trend towards the final stretch of the season. In addition, the duel will be full of stars: Stephen Curry, Nikola Jokic, Draymond Green..., and the doubtful presence of Jamal Murray.
The Nuggets will visit the Warriors' home arena in 4th place in the Western Conference with a 38-19 record, and having won their last two games. The Warriors, meanwhile, are riding a three-game winning streak that has seen them trail the Los Angeles Lakers, although they are still 10th with a 29-26 record.
