For the Nuggets, Reggie Jackson is listed as probable for the clash against the Warriors, nursing a calf concern. But, Vlatko Cancar is listed out, as he had an operation on his left knee. This is a problem for the Nuggets’ lineup changes. The Warriors, grappling with their share of challenges, will be without the services of Draymond Green due to league suspension. Gary Payton II is also going to miss some weeks because of a hamstring injury he got against the Magic. This makes deciding who plays more difficult for Coach Steve Kerr.

Predicted starting line-up for the Nuggets against the Warriors

As people get excited about the game between Nuggets and Warriors, who plays first is important for deciding who wins. For the starting line-up, Nuggets coach Mike Malone will probably employ the services of Jamal Murray, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Michael Porter Jr., Aaron Gordon, and Nikola Jokić. At the same time, Steve Kerr’s Warriors are likely to have a team including strong players like Stephen Curry, Chris Paul, Jonathan Kuminga, Klay Thompson, and Trayce Jackson-Davis.
