Golden State Warriors vs Denver Nuggets Prediction, Odds and Picks for Friday, 11/07/25

After a quiet night in the Association, teams will return tonight to compete in the group play round of the NBA Cup. The Golden State Warriors will be playing their first game in West Group C, while the Denver Nuggets will be playing their second. The Nuggets are currently 0-1 in group play. The Warriors are 5-4 this season, but they have lost 3 of their last 4 games. They have also started slow on the road, with a record away from their home court of 1-4. The Warriors are coming off a 121-116 loss to the Sacramento Kings. They were led by 30 points from rookie Will Richard. Golden State was without Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Draymond Green in the loss. The Nuggets have a record of 5-2 this season, and they have excelled at home with wins in all 4 home games. Denver has won 4 of their last 5 games, and they are coming off a 122-112 win against the Miami Heat. Nikola Jokic led the Nuggets to victory with a 32 point triple-double.

The Warriors are still expected to be without Steph Curry tonight, but they may see Draymond Green and Jimmy Butler return from injury. Butler is listed as questionable while Green has been updated to probable. In the absence of the Warriors big three, numerous players stepped up and even had the Warriors up by double-figures in the first half. Golden State saw 30 points from Richard, 28 points from Moses Moody, and 24 points from Jonathan Kuminga. Overall the team shot 45% from the field and 40% from 3-point range. Even if Butler and Green don’t return tonight, the Warriors depth can still keep them in this game. These two teams played earlier this season and they lit up the scoreboard. The final score was 137-131 in favor of the Warriors. Aaron Gordon scored 50 points in that game and both teams shot over 50% from the field. With Curry out again, the pace may be slower in this game and possessions limited. With more half court sets, I have this game staying under the total.
