In possession of a two-game lead over the Nuggets with five games remaining, the Warriors can start looking ahead of the playoffs.
That means resting some of their regulars. And that will start Thursday against the Lakers.
Backup guard Shaun Livingston and reserve center Andrew Bogut won't play against Los Angeles, according to The Athletic's Anthony Slater.
