The Golden State Warriors got a surprise win against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday, playing excellent defense and knocking down 40.4% of their perimeter shots en route to a 128-117 victory.
With Stephen Curry having been out since Jan. 30 since knee soreness, this was the Warriors' most encouraging performance in quite a while. They had seven players finish with double-digit scoring, and Brandin Podziemski's monster fourth quarter went a long toward erasing some of the concerns that haven arisen recently surrounding his development..
But Golden State's most impressive offensive performer was, even more suprisingly, veteran center Al Horford.
