Golden State have dropped four straight National Basketball Association (NBA) games after winning 12 of their first 15 this season.
They are scuffling a bit but are 3-0 in West Group C, with a chance to complete a sweep of the opening round of the in-season tournament when they face the Nuggets in Denver on Dec 3 (Dec 4, Singapore time).
Denver are 1-2 in the group, dropping games at New Orleans Pelicans and at home against the Dallas Mavericks while beating the Memphis Grizzlies on the road.
The Nuggets have been a model of inconsistency since mid-November, alternating wins and losses over their past seven games.
