The Warriors, who had won the first four games of a seven-game homestand, rallied from 15 down to get within 97-94 with 6:48 to go.

But as was the case all night, Gordon, a former high school star in San Jose, had an answer for the visitors, drilling a step-back jumper to trigger a six-point run. He also completed the key spurt with a follow shot, creating a nine-point margin, and the Warriors never seriously challenged again.

Gordon’s 38 points were seven more than his previous high this season, ‘d totaled previously this season and three fewer than his career-high when he was a member of the Orlando Magic in 2017. He made 14 of his 23 shots and 4 of 6 from deep, while also finding time for six rebounds, five on the offensive end. He also had seven of the Nuggets’ 20 turnovers.
