Moses Moody leaps on rare playing time opportunity for Warriors – NBA Blog
Via the San Jose Mercury News:
Moses Moody took full advantage of a rare opportunity on Saturday night.
Klay Thompson out for the latter leg of the Warriors’ back-to-back left 17 minutes of playing time for Moody, who has been squeezed out of a rotation job this year due to an overflow of players at his position.
Though Moody finished with a team-worst minus-16, he went 3-for-3 from 3 and 4-for-5 overall. His last two 3-pointers created much-needed separation as the Houston Rockets chipped the Warriors once-25-point lead down to five. The Warriors pulled away for a 120-101 win, in part, because Moody was ready.
“I mean, the guy hasn’t played in a month, and he’s been working so hard every single day going full bore getting his work in the weight room and on the floor,” Kerr said.
