The Warriors will play their final home game Tuesday against the Okalahoma Thunder before closing out the regular season in Sacramento and Portland.
DENVER — The Warriors cut a double-figure deficit late in the fourth quarter to pull within two of the Denver Nuggets Sunday evening, but their late rally fell short as they lost 112-110.After the Nuggets inbounded the ball, the Warriors smothered Bruce Brown near half-court, forcing a jump ball. Golden State won the tip with 10 seconds left.
Meanwhile, the Nuggets were without MVP candidate Nikola Jokic for the third straight game as he deals with right calf tightness. But Murray’s 26 points and game-sealing block as well as 29 points and 4 3-pointers from Michal Porter Jr. helped West-leading Denver win its 52nd game of the season. Green got into it with Nuggets fans sitting in the baseline before heading to the huddle. The fan was temporarily escorted out by arena security before returning to his seats, receiving an applause from fellow fans in that area.
The Warriors didn’t go down without a fight, though. They were down 12 with 3:22, but went on a 9-2 run to make it a five-point game with 58 seconds left.
