The Golden State Warriors have released their injury report for Sunday night’s game against the Denver Nuggets, and Steph Curry is not listed, meaning he is available to play. Curry is coming off of an uncharacteristically poor shooting night, but the Warriors were still able to secure a low-scoring win over the Charlotte Hornets to keep their hot streak alive.
Staying hot, the Warriors have been rolling lately, applying pressure on the teams in front of them in the Western Conference standings. While they are still in 10th place, the Warriors are closing the gap between themselves and several other teams in front of them, which leaves the door open for some ascension up the standings.
Moving up in the standings is certainly the goal for Golden State between now and the end of the regular season, as they would love to – at a minimum, move into the top of the play-in tournament bracket. Securing a spot in the top-six will be very difficult for Golden State, but that also remains a goal for them.
This game against the Nuggets will be a great test for Golden State, as Denver remains one of the best teams in basketball. If the Warriors want to truly turn things around, winning games against teams like this is one of the things they have to do.
