The Golden State Warriors return to Denver for a rematch with the Nuggets on Thursday night. This will be the fourth time these teams face off this season and the Nuggets have won all of the last 3 games. They all have been close games.

The Warriors ended their losing streak after beating the Clippers last Tuesday 112-97. They're 17-15 on the road and have a 44-22 record ranking second in the Pacific.

INJURIES: Iguodala, Payton and Green are out.

DENVER NUGGETS 

Denver have won their last 4 games and are 20-11 at home ranking second in the Northwest Division. They beat the Kings 106-100 on Thursday.  Nikola Jokic had 38 points, 18 rebounds and seven assists, He had a double-double before halftime and fell three assists shy of a third consecutive triple-double. "He's been dominating for so long there's nothing you can really do," Morris said. "This guy's playing phenomenal.

BETTING TRENDS

Golden State are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games.

Golden State are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games against Denver.

Denver are 13-7 ATS in their last 20 games.

Denver are 7-1 SU in their last 8 games at home.

Prediction

The Nuggets have won 9 of their last 10 games but they'll be playing on back-to-back and are dealing with some injuries, also they should be tired as they have played some really tough games lately and Jokic can't do all by himself. I took the Nuggets in the last head to head but because the Warriors were missing all of their stars. All of the last 3 games between these two teams have been close ones. Look for the Warriors to avoid a season series sweep.
