SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Stephen Curry scored 42 points, including a game-tying 3-pointer late in regulation to help the Golden State Warriors overcome Aaron Gordon's career-high 50 points and beat the Denver Nuggets 137-131 on Thursday night.

The Warriors went on a 12-2 run in overtime that started with a corner 3-pointer from Al Horford and featured a back-breaking one from Jimmy Butler that made it 133-127 with 41 seconds to play as Golden State got off to a 2-0 start this season.

Gordon broke Alex English's franchise record for a season opener of 47 points set in 1985 against Golden State. Gordon's 10 3-pointers tied Terry Rozier's record set in 2020 for the most made in a season opener.
