The Denver Nuggets dominated the Golden State Warriors 129–104 on November 7 at Ball Arena, with Nikola Jokić leading the way with 26 points and Jamal Murray adding 23 in a decisive home victory. Denver's offensive efficiency was on full display, shooting 56.1 percent from the field while draining 16 three-pointers and recording 34 assists on 129 points, translating to a 137.2 offensive rating. The Nuggets' defense proved suffocating, holding Golden State to just 42.1 percent shooting and a 107.7 offensive rating, with the Warriors committing 12 turnovers to Denver's eight. Golden State's Draymond Green scored 17 points and J. Butler III added 16, but the visitors struggled to find rhythm early, scoring just 21 points in the opening quarter. Denver's balanced attack and defensive pressure, which forced the Warriors into 12 turnovers, proved too much to overcome, with the hosts establishing control by the second quarter and never relinquishing it. The Nuggets' depth and efficiency suggest they remain a formidable Western Conference threat heading into the season's second month.
