The NBA regular season is officially rolling.
After the glitz and glam of a ring ceremony, banner raising and opening night against LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers, game two of the 2022-23 campaign is finally here.
The second game on the Warriors’ schedule will feature a rematch of their first-round playoff season against the Denver Nuggets.
While the Warriors picked up where they left off last season with an easy win over the Lakers, the Nuggets’ season opener went a little differently. On Wednesday, the Nuggets dropped a surprise loss to the lottery-bound Utah Jazz, 123-102.
Although Friday’s contest will serve as a rematch from the playoffs, the Warriors will have to get ready for a new-look Nuggets. Denver’s lineup will feature the healthy returns of Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr.
Before the Warriors host the Nuggets, here’s everything you need to know about Friday’s contest, including how to watch and stream the contest.
