KEY GAME INFORMATION
GOLDEN STATE: LAST SEASON: 58-24, NBA champions.
COACH: Steve Kerr (fifth season)
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Stephen Curry (26.4 ppg), G Klay Thompson (20.0 ppg), F Kevin Durant (26.4 ppg), F Draymond Green (11.0 ppg), C Kevon Looney (4.0 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: C JaVale McGee, C David West, C Zaza Pachulia
KEY ADDITIONS: C DeMarcus Cousins, G Damion Lee, G Jacob Evans, F Jonas Jerebko
PLAYERS TO WATCH: Once Cousins returns to full health from his recovery after left Achilles tendon surgery, the Warriors could have an all-All-Star starting five. Jordan Bell and Kevon Looney made key contributions during the playoffs and will certainly be more heavily featured in Kerr's rotations given the departures of McGee, West and Pachulia.
OUTLOOK: With two straight titles and three in the past four years, Kerr has been stressing that his players must enjoy their time together because there are no guarantees of what could come next after this season with unsettled contract situations for Durant, Green and Thompson to name a few. Curry is coming off what he considers one of his best offseason training programs and Durant has captured the past two NBA Finals MVP crowns. With LeBron James now on the Lakers after four straight finals against Golden State with Cleveland, has the West made big enough offseason strides to keep up with star-studded Warriors?
DENVER: LAST SEASON: 46-36, missed playoffs.
COACH: Michael Malone (fourth season).
PROJECTED STARTING FIVE: G Gary Harris (17.5 ppg) G Jamal Murray (16.7 ppg), F Will Barton (15.7 ppg), F Paul Millsap (14.6 ppg), C Nikola Jokic (18.5 ppg).
KEY LOSSES: F Wilson Chandler, F Kenneth Faried, F Richard Jefferson, F Darrell Arthur, G Devin Harris
KEY ADDITIONS: G Isaiah Thomas, F Michael Porter Jr.
PLAYERS TO WATCH: In the offseason, Jokic signed a max deal contract worth around $147 million for five seasons. He's one of the top big men in the game. The Serbian standout turned in 10 triple-doubles last season, including the fastest triple-double in NBA history. He needed just 14 minutes, 55 seconds to reach the accomplishment at Milwaukee on Feb. 15. Jokic is the centerpiece for an organization trying to get to the postseason for the first time since 2012-13.
OUTLOOK: The addition of Thomas gives the Nuggets even more veteran leadership. They're stacked, but so is the rest of the Western Division. Denver has improved each season under Malone, going from 33 wins his first year, to 40 in 2016-17 and 46 last season. The Nuggets lost out on the eighth and final playoff spot in '17-18 when they lost in overtime at Minnesota on the final game of the regular season.
PREVIEW
Warriors, Nuggets to meet in battle of 2-0 teams
 

DENVER -- Nikola Jokic will attempt to post consecutive triple-doubles for the fifth time in his young career Sunday night when the Denver Nuggets host the Golden State Warriors in a clash of 2-0 teams.

Jokic torched Phoenix Suns rookie hotshot Deandre Ayton for 35 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists in a 119-91 victory Saturday night that gave the Nuggets a season-opening 2-0 record for the first time since 2011.

In the second half of a back-to-back Sunday, he will go head-to-head with the young Golden State tandem of Damian Jones and Kevon Looney, who have taken over this season for veterans Zaza Pachulia and JaVale McGee.

It'll be the third straight tough assignment for the Warriors' young centers, who already have been pitted with Oklahoma City's Steven Adams and Utah's Rudy Gobert.

Jokic had one of his 10 triple-doubles last season against the Warriors, contributing 22 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists to a 124-114 loss at Golden State in January.

He logged triple-doubles in consecutive games three times last season, the last back-to-back coming against the Los Angeles Clippers and Portland in April.

The Nuggets beat the two-time champs twice last year, and are one of three teams -- along with San Antonio and Utah -- to have beaten Golden State at least five times in the Steve Kerr era.

They likely will go for a sixth win in the past five seasons without forward Will Barton, who suffered a hip injury in the third quarter of Saturday's win over the Suns. He had to be helped off the court.

The Nuggets already are without key free-agent signing Isaiah Thomas, who is rehabbing a hip injury of his own. There's no timetable on his return, but he already has made an impact on his teammates, giving each a boombox and headphones.

"Those are two pretty good gifts," fellow guard Gary Harris said. "I'm looking forward to whatever else he has in store."

While the Nuggets will be playing for the second night in a row, the Warriors got a much needed break Saturday after an energy-burning 124-123 road win at Utah on Friday night.

The Warriors, who trailed by as many as 16 points, prevailed when newcomer Jonas Jerebko, who played last season for Utah, tipped in a Kevin Durant miss with three seconds remaining.

"I know it's early in the season, but these type of games are exciting and fun," said Warriors star Stephen Curry, explaining Golden State's unusually demonstrative celebration for an early season victory. "We're thankful to get the win, so we've got to celebrate accordingly."

Curry has scored 32 and 31 points in Golden State's two wins, the first time in his career that he has gone for 30 or more in the first two games of a season.

The Warriors will be seeking to go 3-0 for the second time in the last four years. They opened 24-0 in 2015, winning 103-93 at Denver along the way.

Several Warriors have a history of struggling at Denver, including Durant, who has made just 36 of 106 (34.0 percent) 3-pointers in 19 career games at Denver, and Klay Thompson, who has never score more than 21 points in any of his 11 visits to the Pepsi Center.
