Warriors 116, Nuggets 112:
Jordan Crawford scored a career-high 41 points as visiting Golden State held off Denver to match its franchise record with 24 road wins.

Harrison Barnes added a career-high 30 points for the Warriors, who sat Stephen Curry, David Lee, Andre Iguodala and Jermaine O’Neal in addition to Andrew Bogut (rib). Marreese Speights collected 11 points and 11 rebounds as sixth-seeded Golden State rested up for its first-round Western Conference playoff matchup against the third-seeded Los Angeles Clippers.

Randy Foye scored 32 points but missed a tying 3-point attempt with 7.1 seconds left as the Nuggets closed the season with back-to-back losses. Anthony Randolph added 19 points off the bench and Kenneth Faried recorded 15 points and 13 rebounds for Denver.

The Nuggets started the fourth quarter with a 10-0 run to take a 90-88 lead and it went back and forth over the next six minutes. Crawford’s short jumper with 2:23 to play gave him a career high and put the Warriors in front 110-108, and the advantage reached five points in the final minute before Barnes split a pair of free throws with 6.2 seconds left to seal it.

Barnes scored 22 points and Crawford had 19 in the first half as the Warriors cruised into the break with a 66-52 lead. Barnes’ jumper restored a 14-point advantage with 3:25 left in the third before Denver closed within 88-80 heading to the fourth.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Curry finishes with 261 made 3-pointers, good for the fourth-highest total in NBA history and 11 behind his record set in 2012-13. … Curry and Klay Thompson, who played just long enough to hit two 3-pointers, combined for 493 3-pointers this season, breaking their NBA record of 483 set in 2012-13. … Aaron Brooks was ejected after receiving his second technical foul just in front of the midway point of the third quarter for the Nuggets, who are sitting out the playoffs for the first time since 2002-03.
