Warriors lose to Nuggets; Steph Curry misses late layup after six 3s

DENVER — The Warriors had the odds stacked against them, but Wednesday’s game came down to their final possession. Down two points with seven seconds remaining, Steph Curry missed the game-tying driving layup leading to Golden State’s eventual 108-105 loss to the Denver Nuggets.

The Warriors could have let this game slip away. They were down two key defenders in Draymond Green and Gary Payton II and a mile high against the reigning champions on the final game of a four-game road trip that capped off an arduous start to the year in which they played seven of their first nine games on the road.

Rookies Trayce Jackson-Davis and Brandin Podziemski seamlessly filled the gaps in Green and Payton’s absence to make it a game. Jackson-Davis finished with eight points and two rebounds, finishing a plus-4 in on-off rating. Podziemski had five points, three rebounds and two assists.
