After holding a lead for over 47 minutes of game action, the Warriors suffered a gut-wrenching 117-116 loss on Wednesday night at Chase Center.
Nuggets guard Monte Morris made a 3-pointer as time expired to give Denver the win, spoiling some heroics from Stephen Curry, who had put the Warriors ahead the prior possession with a three-point play.
Morris’ game-winner handed the Dubs their fourth defeat in the last five games, and the Warriors go into the All-Star Break with a 42-17 record.
Curry had 25 points to lead the Warriors, Klay Thompson had 16 and Jordan Poole came through with 15 points off the bench, while reigning MVP Nikola Jokic paced the Nuggets with 35 points, 17 rebounds and eight assists, including the assist on Morris’ game-winner.
