Warriors make change to starting lineup vs. Nuggets
Since Draymond Green’s indefinite suspension, Steve Kerr has tinkered with the Golden State Warriors’ starting lineup. Players like Jonathan Kuminga, Chris Paul, Brandon Podziemski and Trayce Jackson-Davis have shuffled in and out of bench roles to the starting lineup.
Before meeting Nikola Jokic and the defending champion Denver Nuggets on Thursday evening at Chase Center, Kerr will make another change to the starting lineup.
Rookie center Jackson-Davis will go back to the bench while veteran Kevon Looney will join Kuminga, Paul, Steph Curry and Klay Thompson in the starting lineup against the Nuggets.
The Warriors are altering their starting lineup tonight. Kevon Looney replaces Trayce Jackson-Davis, giving Looney the initial Nikola Jokic assignment.

The Warriors will meet the Nuggets at 7 p.m. PT on Thursday evening in San Francisco.
