Moses Moody Injury News & Updates
Keep up with the latest injuries from the Warriors vs Suns game on Thursday with our National Basketball Association injury report.Dec 6, 2025
Moves to second unit
Moody will come off the bench Saturday against the Cavaliers, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Golden State has three losses out of their last four games and will make several changes to their lineup Saturday. Moody could remain heavily involved with the second unit with so many regulars out with injuries.
Dec 3, 2025
Nearly invisible in defeat
Moody had three points (1-5 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 15 minutes during Tuesday's 124-112 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Although Moody had a muted performance, the absences of Jimmy Butler (knee) and Stephen Curry (quadriceps) leave the door open for an amplified role. Moody has averaged 9.0 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 27.8 minutes per game over his last seven appearances.
Nov 25, 2025
Chips in 15 in Monday's win
Moody closed with 15 points (6-17 FG, 3-12 3Pt), six rebounds and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 134-117 win over the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
The fifth-year wing drained multiple three-pointers for the fourth time in seven games since moving back into Golden State's starting five. Moody's production remains inconsistent, but he's averaging 13.6 points, 4.0 boards, 2.9 threes, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 30.3 minutes during that stretch, putting him on pace for career-best numbers this season.
Nov 16, 2025
Dominates for career-high 32 points
Moody amassed 32 points (10-16 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, one block and three steals in 33 minutes during Sunday's 124-106 win over the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
The 32 points are a career high for Moody, who led all scorers Sunday en route to also sinking a career-best eight threes. The swingman has started three consecutive games and five of his last seven, settling into a significant role after an up-and-down start to the year. Over his last eight contests, Moody has averaged 16.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.9 blocks in 28.0 minutes per game.
Nov 13, 2025
Hits five threes in win Wednesday
Moody finished Wednesday's 125-120 win over the Spurs with 19 points (6-13 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 26 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Moody was making his third start of the season and made the most of it, as he ended on the verge of reaching the 20-point mark for the fourth time in the campaign. This was also the fourth time he drained at least five three-pointers in a single game. Moody has been a productive player for the Warriors even if he's not starting on a regular basis. He's hit double-digit points in all but one of his last six appearances, averaging 16.0 points, 2.8 boards, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals per game, and his uptick as a scoring force could make him a valuable streaming option in most formats ahead of a rematch against the Spurs on Friday.
Nov 12, 2025
Starting Wednesday
Moody will move into the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Spurs, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will replace the struggling Jonathan Kuminga in the first unit for Wednesday's game, and depending on how he fares, this could be a long-term promotion for Moody. In his previous two starts this season, Moody registered averages of 15.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 3.0 triples, 1.0 steal and 2.0 blocks per contest.
Nov 9, 2025
Slotted to bench
Moody will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Moody will retreat to a bench role Sunday after starting the previous two games. He still figures to see a sizable role, especially with Stephen Curry (illness) out of the lineup.
Nov 7, 2025
Available to play Friday
Moody (back) will be available to play Friday against the Nuggets, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will power through the back issue, and with Stephen Curry (illness) still unavailable, he should see some more shots falling his way. Jimmy Butler (back) is active, so it's unlikely Moody will be able to repeat his 28-point performance from Wednesday, but he should still see a sizeable role in the offense.
Nov 7, 2025
Added to injury report
Moody (back) is questionable for Friday's game against Denver.
ANALYSIS
It's a downgrade for Moody, who wasn't spotted on the initial injury report for the Warriors. If the swingman is unable to play, the door would open for Buddy Hield to soak up extra minutes off the bench.
Nov 6, 2025
Erupts for 28 points
Moody finished Wednesday's 121-116 loss to the Kings with 28 points (9-15 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, four blocks and two steals over 39 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Moody scored at least 24 points for the second straight game, taking advantage of the fact that Golden State was missing a number of key players. After a muted start to the season, Moody has stepped up recently, putting himself on the standard league radar. While we would need to see this when the team is fully healthy, he could be worth a speculative grab.
Nov 5, 2025
Draws start Wednesday
Moody is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Kings, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors will be without Stephen Curry (illness), Jimmy Butler (ribs) and Draymond Green (ribs) Wednesday night, opening up the opportunity for Moody to make his first start of the campaign. He's averaging 10.5 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 20.8 minutes per game in 2025-26.
Nov 5, 2025
Contributes 24 points in victory
Moody closed Tuesday's 118-107 victory over the Suns with 24 points (7-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Moody enjoyed an accurate evening on the floor in a relief role against Phoenix, firing five three-pointers and missing only four shots during the win. With Stephen Curry (illness) nursing a cold, Moody's numbers will get a usage bump due to. Curry's anticipated absence against the Kings.
Oct 30, 2025
Good to go Thursday
Moody (thumb) will play Thursday against the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Moody was able to shake off his questionable tag for this contest. In three regular-season appearances, Moody has averaged 12.0 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.0 three-pointers.
Oct 29, 2025
Questionable for Thursday
Moody is questionable for Thursday's game in Milwaukee due to right thumb soreness.
ANALYSIS
Moody is dealing with some soreness on the thumb of his shooting hand, but we'll have a better idea on his status for Thursday's game based on his activity level at shootaround. If he is forced to the sidelines, that would create more opportunity for Brandin Podziemski, Gary Payton and Buddy Hield.
Oct 28, 2025
Instant offense off bench Monday
Moody closed with 20 points (6-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes off the bench during Monday's 131-118 victory over the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
After missing the first two games of the season, Moody didn't make much of an impact in his 2025-26 debut Thursday, but he got going Monday and was the only member of the Warriors' second unit to score more than five points. The fifth-year forward is battling Buddy Hield for the role as the team's primary shooting threat off the bench, although coach Steve Kerr is likely to ride the hot hand most nights, and both players have drained five threes in a game already this season.
Oct 25, 2025
Surpasses 20 minutes in debut
Moody (calf) logged 21 minutes off the bench and finished with seven points (1-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds and one steal in Friday's 139-119 loss to the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Cleared to make his season debut after sitting out the Warriors' first two games due to a calf injury, Moody was used off the second unit but didn't seem to be operating with a minutes restriction. Prior to getting hurt, Moody had started in both of his preseason appearances, so he could be in consideration for a move to the top unit once he's fully conditioned coming off the injury. That being said, even a promotion to the starting five wouldn't necessarily lead to a major uptick in playing time for Moody, who is part of a deep rotation of wings that includes Jimmy Butler, Brandin Podziemski, Will Richard, Buddy Hield and Gary Payton. De'Anthony Melton (knee) will also return to the mix down the road, perhaps at some point in November.
Oct 24, 2025
Cleared from injury report
Moody (calf) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
The removal from the injury report sets the stage for Moody's season debut Friday. The swingman has been sidelined for nearly two weeks with a calf injury, so the Warriors could keep an eye on his minutes. Moody's return likely spells some bad news for the fantasy prospects of Brandin Podziemski in the backcourt.
Oct 22, 2025
Won't play vs. Denver
Moody (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Nuggets, 95.7 The Game reports.
ANALYSIS
With the Warriors facing a back-to-back situation, Moody will be held out. Head coach Steve Kerr said he's "hopeful" Moody can play in the second game against the Trail Blazers on Friday.
Oct 19, 2025
Ruled out for Opening Night
Moody (calf) is out for Tuesday's game against the Lakers, Danny Emerman of SFStandard.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody was always considered unlikely to suit up for the season opener, and coach Steve Kerr confirmed Sunday that the wing will remain sidelined with a calf injury. With Moody out Tuesday against the Lakers, Brandin Podziemski and Buddy Hield are in line to see increased opportunities.
Oct 16, 2025
Doubtful for regular-season opener
Moody (calf) is doubtful for Tuesday's regular-season opener against the Lakers, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody's rehab from a calf injury will likely carry into the regular season. With the swingman unlikely for Opening Night, Brandin Podziemski and Buddy Hield should have a brief window for amplified fantasy value.
Oct 12, 2025
Out for rest of preseason
Head coach Steve Kerr said Sunday that Moody (calf) will miss the Warriors' final three preseason games but is hopeful Moody will be back for the regular-season opener, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody picked up a calf injury after starting each of Golden State's first two preseason contests, and the issue will prevent him from suiting up in the team's final three exhibitions. His status should continue to be monitored ahead of the Warriors' Oct. 21 regular-season opener against the Lakers.
Oct 11, 2025
Out with calf issue
Moody will miss Sunday's preseason game against the Lakers with a calf issue, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Warriors coach Steve Kerr believes the issue is minor, but the team will exercise caution. Additionally, Moody is being sent for an MRI. Moody has started both preseason games for the Warriors so far, but it's unclear if he'll be available for Tuesday's exhibition against Portland.
Oct 6, 2025
Tallies team-high 19 points
Moody amassed 19 points (7-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt), one assist and one steal in 15 minutes during Sunday's 111-103 preseason victory over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Moody was given the starting nod as the Warriors began the preseason with a win, leading the team with 19 points. As expected, Steve Kerr went deep into his rotation, with 18 players taking to the court. Moody's exact role this season remains a little uncertain, especially following the re-signing of Jonathan Kuminga. While there is an outside chance he could stick in the starting lineup, he is more likely to come off the bench, logging minutes in the low to mid-20s.
Oct 5, 2025
Will play Sunday
Moody (thumb) will play during Sunday's preseason opener against the Lakers, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody underwent surgery on his right thumb during the offseason, but he will be good to go for the start of the preseason. Moody could see higher usage in the second half of Sunday's contest, as veteran players will only play the first half.
Apr 10, 2025
Struggles with outside shot
Moody notched seven points (3-11 FG, 1-7 3Pt), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 114-111 loss to San Antonio.
ANALYSIS
Moody failed to score double-digit points in his fourth straight outing, largely due to inefficient outside shooting. Since being inserted into the starting lineup on Feb. 13, Moody is averaging 11.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.2 steals in 27.6 minutes across 26 appearances.
Mar 31, 2025
Goes for 20 points vs. Spurs
Moody closed Sunday's 148-106 victory over San Antonio with 20 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals across 25 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Moody was one of the top scorers for the Warriors in this blowout win, and he delivered one of his most efficient shooting performances of the season after missing just four of his 11 shots. Moody has scored at least 20 points in two of his last seven appearances, but given that he's failed to record double-digit points in the other five in that span, it's hard to trust him for sustained production across most formats at this stage of the campaign.
Mar 23, 2025
Fills stat sheet in loss Saturday
Moody accumulated 20 points (7-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals over 35 minutes during Saturday's 124-115 loss to the Hawks.
ANALYSIS
Moody did a good job contributing across the board in this win, but perhaps most importantly, he bounced back from three single-digit scoring efforts and reached the 20-point mark just for the third time since the All-Star break. Moody is expected to experience an uptick in his usage rate while Stephen Curry (pelvis) remains sidelined, so he might have some short-term upside increase just in time for the fantasy playoffs.
Mar 21, 2025
Struggles shooting
Moody tallied four points (0-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two assists, two steals and one rebound in Thursday's 117-114 win over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Moody struggled from the field, missing all of his field goal attempts and totaling all of four points from the free-throw line. The 22-year-old also shot poorly Tuesday against the Raptors, but has generally been a steady secondary contributor for the Warriors. Since becoming a full-time starter on February 13, the 2021 first-round pick has averaged 11.9 points and 3.4 rebounds on 45.5 percent shooting in 16 games.
Mar 14, 2025
Full stat line in victory
Moody contributed 17 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six assists, four rebounds, two steals and one block across 30 minutes during Thursday's 130-104 victory over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Moody finished as the club's third-leading scorer while stuffing the stat sheet in an efficient outing. The fourth-year swingman was active on both ends of the floor, and he recorded multiple steals for just the eighth time on the season. The 22-year-old has made 12 consecutive starts, averaging 12.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steals across 29.2 minutes per contest.
Mar 11, 2025
Efficient shooting in win
Moody ended Monday's 130-120 victory over Portland with 20 points (7-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 30 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Moody had his second-best scoring performance of the season Monday against the Trail Blazers, finishing with 20 points. He missed only three of the 10 shots he attempted. The 22-year-old has scored 20 or more points only twice this season while averaging 9.8 points per game for the Warriors.
Mar 7, 2025
Chips in 10 points in win
Moody totaled 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists across 29 minutes during Thursday's 121-119 victory over the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Moody put together an efficient performance Thursday, and he was one of five Warriors to score in double figures. The 22-year-old has been a mainstay in the starting five of late, starting in nine of his last 10 appearances. In that 10-game span, Moody has averaged 11.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers, 1.1 assists and 0.8 blocks across 28.0 minutes per contest.
Feb 22, 2025
Hits for 22 points in victory
Moody supplied 22 points (8-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block over 29 minutes during Friday's 132-108 win over Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Moody and Buddy Hield both registered five three-pointers in a decisive beatdown of the Kings. With Andrew Wiggins shipped off to Miami, the Warriors have tinkered around to find the right role players to place alongside Jimmy Butler, and Moody has been the most successful player to fill the gap.
Feb 14, 2025
Makes impact on defense
Moody ended Thursday's 105-98 win over the Rockets with 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals across 34 minutes.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-year forward has started two of the last three games, alternating starts with Quinten Post as coach Steve Kerr plays matchups around Golden State's new dynamic duo of Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler. Moody has been productive in a secondary role in those contests, averaging 12.3 points, 4.7 boards, 1.7 steals, 1.7 blocks and 1.3 threes in 31.3 minutes a contest, but it's not clear what his workload might look like once Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) is ready to get back on the court.
Feb 13, 2025
Receives starting nod Thursday
Moody will start in Thursday's game against Houston, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Quinten Post will retreat to the bench due to Moody re-entering the starting five against the Rockets. Over his last 10 outings (two starts), the Arkansas product has averaged 12.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.5 assists across 25.2 minutes per contest.
Feb 12, 2025
Slides back to bench
Moody won't start Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody was part of the Warriors' small-ball lineup Monday, but he'll be replaced by Quinten Post on Wednesday as they take on the undersized Mavs. Moody is averaging 9.0 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists across 18.9 minutes per game this season.
Feb 11, 2025
Supplies 13 points in Monday's win
Moody accumulated 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals over 33 minutes during Monday's 125-111 victory over the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Making his sixth start of the season but only his second since Nov. 6, Moody made his mark at both ends of the court. Warriors coach Steve Kerr is still determining what his best lineup will look like with Jimmy Butler on the roster -- Quinten Post got the start Saturday instead of Moody in Butler's debut -- so the two younger players could continue to bounce between the first and second units until Kerr finds a rotation he likes. Moody has been fairly consistent over the last month regardless of how he's been deployed, scoring in double digits in 11 of his last 13 appearances while averaging 12.2 points, 3.1 boards, 2.2 threes, 1.8 assists and 1.1 combined steals and blocks in 25.9 minutes a contest.
Feb 10, 2025
Running with starters Monday
Moody is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Bucks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors are electing to deploy a smaller starting lineup Monday, with Moody making his sixth start of the season in place of Quinten Post. Over five games as a starter this season, Moody has averaged 11.6 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.6 threes in 21.0 minutes while shooting a sizzling 59.1 percent from deep.
Feb 8, 2025
Will play Saturday
Moody (back) has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Moody missed Wednesday's loss to the Jazz with a back issue but returned to the floor for Thursday's loss to the Lakers, finishing with 14 points, five rebounds, two assists and one steal in 32 minutes off the bench. The Warriors will hope for similar production from the 22-year-old during Saturday's game in Chicago.
Feb 7, 2025
Probable against Chicago
Moody (back) has been listed as probable to play in Saturday's game against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Moody continues to deal with a back strain, but that won't keep him off the floor Saturday in Chicago. The 22-year-old forward is having his best season yet with the Warriors, averaging a career-high 9.1 points to go along with 2.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game while shooting a career-high 39.8 percent from beyond the arc.
Feb 7, 2025
Double-digit scoring figures again
Moody (back) racked up 14 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Thursday's 120-112 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Moody hit double-digit scoring figures for the 10th time in his last 11 games while playing through a back injury Thursday. During this span, the 2021 first-rounder has averaged 12.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.5 threes in 25.6 minutes while shooting 43.1 percent from beyond the arc. The scoring numbers put Moody in the streaming conversation in deep fantasy leagues, although his lack of contributions across the board limit his overall appeal.
Feb 6, 2025
Cleared to play Thursday
Moody (back) is available for Thursday's game against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Following a one-game absence with a back injury in Wednesday's loss to the Jazz, Moody will return to Golden State's lineup Thursday. The 22-year-old has reached double-digit scoring figures in nine of his last 10 outings, during which Moody has averaged 12.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.6 threes in 25.0 minutes.
Feb 6, 2025
Iffy for Thursday
Moody (back) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Moody remains day-to-day after missing Wednesday's game versus the Jazz. His long-term fantasy outlook took a hit at the deadline, as the Warriors traded for Jimmy Butler. Butler won't be making his debut Thursday, however.
Feb 5, 2025
Ruled out for Wednesday
Moody (back) will not play Wednesday against the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Moody was originally considered questionable, but the Warriors will hold him out Wednesday. It remains to be seen if the wing is able to return against the Lakers on Thursday. With Moody sidelined, guys like Gui Santos and Gary Payton could potentially be more involved for the Warriors.
Feb 4, 2025
Iffy for Wednesday
Moody (back) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Moody is coming off a 17-point performance off the bench in Monday's win against the Magic. However, he might be on the shelf for Wednesday's matchup on the road in Utah as he deals with a back strain. Gui Santos, Gary Payton and possibly Draymond Green (calf), if he's cleared, will likely have to help shoulder the workload if Moody can't play against the Jazz.
Feb 4, 2025
Productive in 24 minutes
Moody chipped in 17 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT) and one rebound over 24 minutes during Monday's 104-99 win over Orlando.
ANALYSIS
Moody provided a scoring punch for the second unit but wasn't able to generate many peripheral stats. Over his last seven games, Moody has produced 13th-round value in nine-category formats in 23.4 minutes per contest with 13.0 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.6 three-pointers.
Jan 29, 2025
Not starting Wednesday
Moody will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Warriors' coach Steve Kerr has been tinkering with lineups recently, and Wednesday's iteration does not include Moody. Instead, Golden State will start Stephen Curry, Gary Payton, Buddy Hield, Andrew Wiggins and Quinten Post.
Jan 28, 2025
Joins starting lineup Tuesday
Moody is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Jazz, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors are opting to have Moody make his fifth start of the season Tuesday, with Gary Payton sliding to the second unit against Utah. Over four appearances in Golden State's first unit in 2024-25, Moody averaged 10.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 three-pointers in 19.4 minutes while shooting a blistering 62.5 percent from beyond the arc.
Jan 23, 2025
Available vs. Chicago
Moody is available for Thursday's game against the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Moody was a game-time call for this contest, but the guard will be available and should add depth off the bench. Moody is averaging 9.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists since the beginning of January.
Jan 23, 2025
Expected to play Thursday
Moody is listed as probable for Thursday's game versus the Bulls due to left knee patellar tendinopathy.
ANALYSIS
Moody is expected to suit up Thursday despite dealing with a left knee issue. The 22-year-old should continue to be one of Golden State's primary options in their frontcourt rotation if he's upgraded to available.
Jan 21, 2025
Strong performance in loss
Moody amassed 13 points (5-13 FG, 3-9 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 125-85 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
This wasn't Moody's best shooting night, obviously, put he was able to chip in across the stat sheet for a solid fantasy line. He did benefit from some garbage time, but Moody could see extended minutes going forward with Draymond Green (cal) sidelined for at least three more games. Moddy has scored in double figures in three straight and could have some streaming appeal to fantasy managers in deeper leagues.
Jan 16, 2025
Nails three triples off bench
Moody racked up 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 116-115 victory over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Moody is enjoying the best outside shooting of his career, converting 39.2 percent of his 3.8 three-point attempts per contest. However, this hasn't stopped his overall efficiency from taking a dip, as he is shooting just 42.8 percent from the field in 2024-25.
Jan 10, 2025
Will be available Friday
Moody (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will suit up despite dealing with a knee problem, though he'll come off the bench even though the Warriors will be significantly depleted in the backcourt. Moody missed the 107-104 win over the Pistons on Thursday, but he has averaged 11.0 points per game over his previous six outings off the bench dating back to Dec. 27.
Jan 10, 2025
Expected to play Friday
Moody (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against Indiana.
ANALYSIS
Moody missed the first leg of the club's back-to-back set in Thursday's win over Detroit due to left knee patellar tendonopathy. The 22-year-old should see significant playing time if he suits up, as Stephen Curry (knees), Draymond Green (back), Andrew Wiggins (personal) and Brandin Podziemski (abdomen) have all been ruled out. Moody has averaged 11.0 points and 1.6 rebounds across 17.2 minutes per contest in his last five outings.
Jan 9, 2025
Ruled out Thursday
Moody (knee) is out for Thursday's game versus the Pistons, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody has been downgraded from questionable to out Thursday due to patellar tendonopathy in his left knee. Lindy Water and Buddy Hield are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Moody's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Indiana.
Jan 8, 2025
Iffy for Thursday
Moody (knee) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Moody is among the many notable Warriors players listed as questionable for Thursday's game in Detroit, which includes Stephen Curry, Dennis Schroder and Draymond Green. The 22-year-old is having a decent season off the bench for Steve Kerr, averaging 8.0 points and 1.8 rebounds per game, shooting 44.3 percent from the floor and a career-high 39.8 percent from beyond the arc.
Jan 6, 2025
Scores 13 points
Moody supplied 13 points (5-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and two steals across 26 minutes during Sunday's 129-99 loss to the Kings.
ANALYSIS
With Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) out several weeks, Moody has a big opportunity to make an impact with the second unit, especially with Buddy Hield struggling. Moody has fared well in limited minutes this season, hitting 40.4 percent from beyond the arc.
Dec 31, 2024
Leads from bench with 19 points
Moody supplied 19 points (7-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 21 minutes during Monday's 113-95 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Stephen Curry struggled from the get-go during Monday's game, and Moody entered the game early, providing a spark to the offense. He also logged time once the game was well out of hand, and led all Warriors in scoring. The total marked Moody's best scoring result of the season, but he fourth-year pro isn't playing regularly enough to merit fantasy consideration.
Dec 30, 2024
Good to go Monday
Moody (knee) is listed as available for Monday's matchup against Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Moody will suit up Monday while the club manages his availability due to a left knee injury. The 22-year-old will likely play a sizable role against the Cavaliers, as the Warriors are without Brandin Podziemski (abdomen) and Gary Payton (calf).
Dec 29, 2024
Likely to play Monday
Moody (knee) is probable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Moody missed Saturday's game against the Suns due to left knee injury management but he will likely return to the lineup Monday. With Brandin Podziemski (abdomen) and Gary Payton (calf) out of the lineup, Moody could see a sizable role if he is able to play.
Dec 28, 2024
Idle Saturday
Moody (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors will rest Moody for the second leg of the back-to-back set. He missed five of Golden State's last six games before returning to play 24 minutes Friday night. Lindy Waters and Buddy Hield should receive most of Moody's vacated minutes. His next chance to play will come Monday against Cleveland.
Dec 28, 2024
Questionable to play Saturday
Moody has been downgraded to questionable for Saturday's game against the Suns due to left knee injury management.
ANALYSIS
The downgrade in status suggests that Moody might not suit up for the second leg of this back-to-back set against the Suns. Moody is averaging 7.4 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game this season.
Dec 24, 2024
Gets 10 minutes in return
Moody (knee) tallied three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt) in 10 minutes in Monday's 111-105 loss to the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Moody made his return to action after missing the Warriors' previous four games with left knee patellar tendinopathy. His playing-time outlook isn't likely to improve moving forward, as the Warriors have since added to their guard depth by acquiring Dennis Schroder. Additionally, Gary Payton (calf) wasn't available Monday, and he may be asked to cover a handful of minutes on the wing per game once healthy.
Dec 23, 2024
Cleared to face Pacers
Moddy (knee) is active for Monday's game against Indiana, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will return from a four-game absence due to a knee injury. In 23 appearances this season, Moody is averaging 15.6 minutes, but his role could be smaller following the Warriors' acquisition of Dennis Schroder.
Dec 22, 2024
Questionable for Monday
Moody (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Moody missed Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to a left knee injury that has his status for Monday in question. If he is unable to go, Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield could see increased minutes.
Dec 21, 2024
Not playing vs. Minnesota
Moody (knee) is out for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
According to head coach Steve Kerr, Moody felt "a little sore" after scrimmaging Friday, and the Warriors are going to take it easy on the 22-year-old guard. With Moody out, expect Jonathan Kuminga, Gui Santos and Buddy Hield to receive an uptick in their minutes off the bench.
Dec 21, 2024
Downgraded to questionable
Moody (knee) is now questionable for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Moody was initially tabbed probable for Saturday's tilt due to left knee patellar tendinopathy, but he's now questionable for the contest. He has missed three straight games due to the injury, and his absence has allowed more opportunities for Gui Santos, Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield.
Dec 20, 2024
Expected to play Saturday
Moody (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Moody is expected to return to action Saturday after missing Golden State's previous three contests due to a left knee injury. If Moody is upgraded to available, Jonathan Kuminga, Gui Santos and Buddy Hield could receive decreased playing time.
Dec 19, 2024
Ruled out
Moody (knee) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Moody was expected to land a doubtful tag, but he's been ruled out on the Warriors' initial injury report. It'll be his third straight absence due to left knee patellar tendinopathy. He's averaging 15.6 minutes per game this season but could see his role shrink with Dennis Schroder in the fold. Moody's next chance to play will come Saturday at Minnesota.
Dec 17, 2024
Not expected to play Thursday
Coach Steve Kerr said Moody (knee) will be listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Grizzlies, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will likely miss a third straight game due to left knee tendinitis. It's unclear when he'll be able to suit up again, but the Warriors are expected to have Dennis Schroder available soon.
Dec 14, 2024
Another absence coming
Moody (knee) is out for Sunday's game versus the Mavericks and is considered day-to-day moving forward, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will miss his second straight contest Sunday due to a left knee injury. The 22-year-old forward's next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Memphis.
Dec 10, 2024
Ruled out for Wednesday
Moody (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinals matchup against the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Moody aggravated a left knee injury after playing only five minutes during Sunday's win over the Timberwolves. With the 22-year-old sidelined, Lindy Waters and Kyle Anderson could see an uptick in playing time.
Dec 8, 2024
Tweaks knee in win
Moody aggravated his left knee injury during Sunday's 114-106 victory over the Timberwolves and wasn't available for the second half, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody played only five minutes before the team decided to shut him down for the night. After the game, coach Steve Kerr noted that Moody tweaked the same knee he injured Friday night. He'll be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Rockets.
Dec 8, 2024
Good to go
Moody (knee) has been cleared to play Sunday against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Moody was upgraded to probable about 90 minutes before tipoff, and he's now been cleared to take the court for Sunday's matchup. He's averaging 6.1 minutes and 1.3 rebounds across 15.0 minutes in his last seven appearances, all in a reserve role.
Dec 8, 2024
Probable vs. Minnesota
Moody (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody was added to the injury report as questionable Saturday evening, but he's clearly trending in the right direction and now has a good chance to suit up Sunday. Gordon notes that the team plans to wait until Moody completes pre-game warmups before providing another update on his availability.
Dec 7, 2024
Questionable for Sunday
Moody (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Moody left Friday's game against Minnesota due to left knee soreness. The questionable tag leaves the door open for a return, but a final decision on his status will probably be made closer to Sunday's 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff. Moody is averaging 7.7 points per game across 22 appearances (four starts) this season.
Dec 6, 2024
Won't return Friday
Moody won't return to Friday's game against the Timberwolves after suffering a knee injury, Chris Hine of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He finishes the game with three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and a rebound across seven minutes off the bench.
ANALYSIS
Moody wasn't making a significant impact off the bench, but losing him for an extended stretch will hurt the Warriors' depth off the bench. Moody's next chance to play will come in the rematch against the Timberwolves on Sunday, though further tests will be needed to determine the severity of the injury.
Dec 4, 2024
Impresses off bench Tuesday
Moody recorded 13 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 21 minutes during Tuesday's 119-115 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Moody has struggled with consistency off the bench this season, and that limits his fantasy upside considerably. He's scored in double digits in just two of his last appearances, a span in which he's averaging just 5.6 points per game while shooting 36.4 percent from the floor. Moody has struggled to earn a consistent role in Steve Kerr's rotation, and the lack of production conspires against his fantasy upside. At this point, it's better to keep Moody on the waiver wire regardless of the format you're playing.
Nov 26, 2024
Puts up 15 points from bench
Moody produced 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 16 minutes during Monday's 128-120 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Moody usually works as Andrew Wiggins' direct replacement in the second unit, so his output is dependent on how well Wiggins is playing, and the amount of damage he can inflict with his limited time. Since Wiggins is on an upward trend, fewer minutes for Moody have followed in suit, but he made the most of 18 minutes with a solid night of shooting. Like most of the second unit, Moody is one injury away from a full-time role, but his fantasy potential is limited in the short term.
Nov 8, 2024
Not starting Friday
Moody is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Moody will return to a bench role. The Warriors will start Gary Payton at shooting guard due to his superior defensive abilities in order to guard Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland.
Nov 6, 2024
Decent showing in limited chances
Moody contributed nine points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one steal over 13 minutes during Wednesday's 118-112 win over the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Moody returned to the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup but was handed a small workload in comparison to the other members of the first unit. Despite only 13 minutes of action, he was efficient on the offensive end and crashed the glass for his best mark of the season in rebounds. Moody is averaging 10.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists over his last five appearances.
Nov 6, 2024
Moves to starting role
Moody is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
Moody returns to the first unit after coming off the bench in the 125-112 win over the Wizards on Monday. This will be Moody's fourth start in his last five appearances, and he's averaging 11.3 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game when running with the first unit.
Nov 4, 2024
Not starting Monday
Moody won't start Monday's game against the Wizards, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After three straight starts, Moody will shift back to the bench, while Stephen Curry (ankle) returns to the starting lineup. In three appearances off the bench this season, Moody has averaged 10.0 points in 15.3 minutes per game.
Nov 2, 2024
Remains in starting lineup
Moody will start Saturday's game against the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Despite Andrew Wiggins (back) returning to action, Moody will remain in the starting lineup, with Jonathan Kuminga coming off the bench again. Over his first two starts this season, Moody averaged 12.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 23.5 minutes per game.
Oct 30, 2024
Logs 17 points in spot start
Moody amassed 17 points (6-8 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 17 minutes during Tuesday's 124-106 win over the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Coach Steve Kerr elected to give Moody the start in place of Jonathan Kuminga, who has struggled with his shot over the team's first three games. Moody gave way to Kuminga eventually, but he managed a strong line despite playing only 17 minutes. Kuminga's shot was more accurate during the victory, but Kerr may implement a platoon at the position in the short term.
Oct 29, 2024
Gets start Tuesday vs. NOR
Moody will enter the starting lineup in Tuesday's game against the Pelicans, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After a slow start to the season for Jonathan Kuminga, Moody will replace him and get the start at small forward Tuesday. Through three regular-season outings off the bench, the 22-year-old has averaged 10.0 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists while shooting 45.8 percent across 15.0 minutes per game.
Oct 20, 2024
Agrees to three-year extension
Moody signed a three-year, $39 million contract extension Sunday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody is coming off a 2023-24 campaign during which he averaged 8.1 points on 46.2 percent shooting, 3.0 rebounds and 0.9 assists across 17.5 minutes per game over 66 regular-season contests (nine starts). His role during the upcoming season was expected to expand following the departure of Klay Thompson to the Mavericks, but it's unclear how much playing time Moody will see with the additions of De'Anthony Melton and Buddy Hield. Still, a three-year extension indicates the Warriors have Moody very much a part of their future plans.
Oct 16, 2024
Leads all scorers with 21 points
Moody compiled 21 points (7-13 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and a steal across 19 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 preseason win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Moody's role was enhanced thanks to DNP designations for De'Anthony Melton (back) and Brandin Podziemski (nose). The acquisitions of Melton and Buddy Hield have diminished Moody's potential, which was supposed to be elevated after Klay Thompson's departure. While Moody's preseason lines are encouraging, his eventual role in Golden State's rotation is currently in question.
Oct 15, 2024
Expected off bench Tuesday
Moody is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's preseason game against the Lakers, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Draymond Green (rest) is back in the starting five, and Moody is expected to play off the bench Tuesday. The 22-year-old is coming off a career-best year, and with Klay Thompson out of the picture, Moody will likely be in for an uptick in playing time once again.
Oct 14, 2024
Drops 14 points
Moody logged 14 points (5-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two rebounds and one steal in 25 minutes of Sunday's 111-93 preseason win over Detroit.
ANALYSIS
This wasn't Moody's best shooting night, to be fair, but it's clear that the Warriors have given him the green light. He's been impressive overall in the preseason so far, and his chances of securing a rotation spot are trending in the right direction.
Oct 12, 2024
Pops for 23 on Friday
Moody scored a game-high 23 points (7-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-8 Ft) while adding three rebounds in 25 minutes during Friday's 109-106 preseason win over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Getting the start at shooting guard, Moody was the only member of Golden State's starting five to score more than seven points as coach Steve Kerr continues to mix-and-match his lineup. Moody has yet to make a consistent impact heading into his fourth NBA season, but his production took a step forward in 2023-24 -- including career highs in points (8.1), boards (3.0) and threes (1.1) per game -- and he's making a case for more court time on the wing.
Oct 11, 2024
Starting Friday
Moody will start at shooting guard in Friday's exhibition game versus the Kings, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody has come off the bench in Golden State's previous two preseason games, as De'Anthony Melton and Brandin Podziemski each got starts at shooting guard. Moody will have his turn Friday. He is competing for depth minutes on the wing this season for Golden State.
Apr 17, 2024
Plays well off bench
Moody contributed 16 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 15 minutes during Tuesday's 118-94 Play-In Game loss to Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Moody was arguably the best player on the court for Golden State on a night that saw their season come to an end. After an unconvincing start to the season, Moody was able to carve out a meaningful role down the stretch, perhaps an indication that he could be in for an uptick in playing time next year. Whatever direction the coaching staff chooses, it is clear they need to lean into their youth with their veteran core now well beyond their best.
Apr 7, 2024
Back to bench
Moody will come off the bench in Sunday's game against the Jazz, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody got a spot start in the Warriors previous game, but he will return to his usual reserve role Sunday. He has averaged 7.4 points, 2.9 rebounds and 0.7 assists across 16.3 minutes in 52 games off the bench this season.
Apr 5, 2024
Joins starting lineup
Moody will enter the starting lineup for Friday's game against Dallas, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Andrew Wiggins (ankle) is joining Jonathan Kuminga (knee) on the sidelines, so Moody could potentially see a healthy workload. In eight starts this season, Moody holds averages of 13.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.8 three-pointers.
Mar 27, 2024
Sees extended action vs. Magic
Moody finished with 12 points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 101-93 victory over Orlando.
ANALYSIS
Moody eclipsed 20 minutes on the court for the first time since March 9 against the Spurs. His extended play Wednesday was due to both Jonathan Kuminga (knee) sidelined and Draymond Green being tossed early in the first quarter with two quick technical fouls. Expect Moody's minutes to drop should Kuminga suit up for Friday's game against the Hornets.
Mar 22, 2024
Available Friday
Moody (knee) is good to go for Friday's matchup with the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Moody will again play through a knee injury for the third straight game. Although he will be available, the forward could again see limited minutes.
Mar 21, 2024
Questionable for Friday
Moody (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Moody has powered through the knee issue the past two games, but he's been very limited, only playing a total of 12 minutes. At this point, he can't be viewed as a viable option in standard formats.
Mar 20, 2024
Available but not 100%
Moody will play in Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, but he won't be at 100 percent, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody was initially tabbed questionable for Wednesday's contest, but he'll give it a go after battling left knee soreness. During his last six appearances, Moody is averaging 6.5 points and 3.7 rebounds.
Mar 19, 2024
Questionable for Wednesday
Moody (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Memphis.
ANALYSIS
Moody exited Monday's loss to the Knicks due to left knee soreness, and he's at risk of missing Wednesday's contest due to the injury. If Moody is ultimately unavailable, Brandin Podziemski and Andrew Wiggins would likely absorb the majority of his typical 10-20 minute role.
Mar 19, 2024
Won't return Monday
Moody has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Knicks due to left knee soreness. He finished with three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), one assist and one steal in eight minutes of action.
ANALYSIS
Moody carried a probable designation while dealing with left knee soreness leading up to his clearance for Monday's game, and the issue appears to have flared up to the point of removing him from the contest. It's a troubling development for the 21-year-old, who also had a multi-week absence due to left calf soreness in January.
Mar 11, 2024
Good to go
Moody (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Moody has been upgraded from probable to available. With Stephen Curry (ankle) sidelined, Moody should continue to play elevated minutes off the bench. Over his last three appearances, Moody has averaged 23.3 minutes per game.
Mar 10, 2024
Listed probable for Monday
Moody is probable for Monday's game against the Spurs due to left knee soreness.
ANALYSIS
Moody continues to play an elevated role. First, he replaced Andrew Wiggins, who was away from the team due to personal reasons, in the starting lineup for a four-game stretch, and now, Moody is playing elevated bench minutes because of Chris Paul moving into the starting lineup in Stephen Curry's (ankle) absence. Over his last seven appearances, Moody has averaged 10.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.3 minutes per game.
Mar 8, 2024
Near double-double off bench
Moody recorded 10 points (4-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one steal over 23 minutes during Thursday's 125-122 loss to the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
With Andrew Wiggins (personal) back with the team, Moody has reverted to a bench role. The third-year wing's offensive production has dropped with the move, but he's maintained a sizable spot in the rotation, playing at least 21 minutes in back-to-back games off the bench. Moody's playing time could increase again if Stephen Curry (ankle) is forced to miss extended time after leaving Thursday's loss late in the fourth quarter.
Mar 6, 2024
Returns to bench
Moody isn't in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Bucks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Andrew Wiggins will reclaim his starting spot from Moody after missing the last four games for personal reasons. Moody is averaging 7.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 14.1 minutes across his last 10 appearances coming off the bench.
Mar 1, 2024
Strong two-way effort Friday
Moody totaled 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals in 32 minutes during Friday's 120-105 victory over the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
Moody remained in the starting lineup, putting together arguably his best all-around game of the season. He scored at least 15 points for just the fourth time this year while matching his season-high with four combined steals and blocks. As long as Andrew Wiggins (personal) is sidelined, Moody is worth considering as a potential streaming option.
Feb 27, 2024
Set to start Tuesday
Moody will start in place of Andrew Wiggins (personal) on Tuesday, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will log his first start since Dec. 2, with Tuesday representing his fifth start of the year in total. The third-year wing is averaging 14.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists on 57.1 percent shooting in 24.5 minutes across his four prior cameos with the first unit
Feb 6, 2024
Gets rotational role in return
Moody (calf) played 15 minutes and finished with four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one block in Monday's 109-98 win over the Nets.
ANALYSIS
The return of Moody from a nine-game absence due to a calf strain helped restore some depth on the wing, but he didn't turn in a meaningful fantasy line while going a plus-5 during his time on the court. Moody should be able to stick in the rotation while the eventual returns of Gary Payton (hamstring) and Chris Paul (hand) are further away, though the third-year player could see a slight minutes reduction if Andrew Wiggins (ankle) is back in action in the near future.
Feb 4, 2024
Absent from injury report
Moody (calf) isn't listed on Golden State's injury report ahead of Monday's game versus Brooklyn.
ANALYSIS
Moody has missed nine straight games due to a left calf strain, but it appears he'll return to action Monday. The third-year wing's return couldn't come at a better time, as Golden State may be without Andrew Wiggins (foot) for a few games. When Moody has played at least 20 minutes this season (11 times), he's averaged 13.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game.
Feb 3, 2024
Not playing Saturday
Moody (calf) is listed as out for Saturday's game in Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Moody resumed practicing earlier this week and looks to be closing in on a return to action, but he'll miss his ninth game in a row while he works through a left calf strain. Once cleared to play, Moody should recapture a spot on the Warriors' second unit.
Feb 1, 2024
Another absence coming
Moody (calf) is out for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Despite being cleared for practice, Moody will miss his eighth straight contest Friday due to a left calf strain. His next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Atlanta.
Jan 30, 2024
Cleared for practice
The Warriors announced Tuesday that Moody (calf) is making good progress in his recovery and has been cleared to practice.
ANALYSIS
Moody is set to miss his seventh straight contest Tuesday due to a left calf strain. However, Moody appears to be nearing a return, with Friday's matchup with Memphis being his next chance to suit up.
Jan 30, 2024
Remains out Tuesday
Moody (calf) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
After missing each of the Warriors' last six games with a left calf strain, Moody had been scheduled for a re-evaluation Monday, but the team has yet to provide an update on his status. For now, Moody can be viewed as day-to-day, and he could be back in action as soon as Friday in Memphis if he's able to practice Wednesday and/or Thursday.
Jan 22, 2024
Out another week
The Warriors announced Monday that Moody (calf) will be re-evaluated in one week.
ANALYSIS
Moody has been sidelined since he suffered a Grade 1 left calf strain on Jan. 10, but he's making good progress in his recovery and has been cleared to begin light individual workouts. Given his new re-evaluation date, Moody will miss at least three more games and should be considered questionable to return on Jan. 30 against the 76ers.
Jan 12, 2024
Out next four games
Coach Steve Kerr said Friday that Moody (calf) is out for the remainder of the Warriors' road trip, which ends on Jan. 19 against Dallas, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody had already been ruled out for Friday's contest but will now miss extended time with a left calf injury. Andrew Wiggins and Brandin Podziemski are candidates to receive increased minutes in his absence. Moody's next chance to suit up will be on Jan. 19 against Dallas.
Jan 11, 2024
Not playing Friday
Moody (calf) is out for Friday's game versus the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Moody continues to rehab from a calf problem, and the game against Chicago comes too soon for him. His next chance to play will come against the Bulls on Saturday in the second half of a back-to-back set.
Jan 11, 2024
Injures calf in blowout loss
Moody suffered a calf injury in Wednesday's loss to New Orleans and will be getting an MRI, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports. He finished with 21 points (8-18 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and one steal over 25 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Moody had an excellent first half, draining four triples and scoring 12 points over 15 minutes. His performance resulted in coach Steve Kerr putting Moody on the floor to begin the second half, but his night came to an end when he hurt his calf early in the fourth period. Despite the injury, it was another breakthrough performance for Moody, who has scored 21 points in each of his past two games after failing to score over a combined six minutes across Golden State's previous four contests. It remains to be seen if Moody will need to miss time moving forward, with the results of the MRI likely providing a clearer picture of the severity of the calf injury.
Jan 8, 2024
Drops 21 points off bench
Moody accumulated 21 points (7-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 22 minutes during Sunday's 133-118 loss to the Raptors.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors fell behind early in Sunday's matchup, and Moody saw an uptick in playing time off the bench. He made the most of his increased role, matching his season-high scoring total with an efficient showing from the floor. Moody could see increased minutes while Chris Paul (hand) is sidelined. Moody outperformed Andrew Wiggins, who took on a starting role Sunday, but it's unclear whether the third-year pro will be in the mix to handle a starting role at some point during Paul's absence.
Dec 26, 2023
Only three minutes in loss
Moody totaled no counting stats in three minutes during Monday's 120-114 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Moody barely touched the floor in the loss, continuing his underwhelming play of late. While this was a low point, he had failed to play more than 20 minutes in each of the previous six games. He has been well outside the top 300 over the past two weeks, making him a drop in all but the deepest of leagues.
Dec 7, 2023
Posts 12 points from bench
Moody ended Wednesday's 110-106 victory over Portland with 12 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, one block and one steal over 26 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Andrew Wggins' return sent Moody back to the bench, but he still managed a decent performance due to shooting woes present in the first unit. Although Moody's totals aren't yet worthy of fantasy consideration, coach Steve Kerr may elect to use Moody with more frequency if the team's offense continues to sputter.
Dec 6, 2023
Moves back to bench
Moody isn't in the starting five for Wednesday's game versus the Trail Blazers, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Andrew Wiggins will replace Moody in the starting lineup Wednesday after missing the previous two games with a finger injury. Moody is averaging 8.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 19.8 minutes across his last five appearances coming off the bench.
Dec 2, 2023
Scores season-high 21 points
Moody totaled 21 points (5-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 9-10 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two steals over 32 minutes during Saturday's 113-112 loss to the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Andrew Wiggins (finger) missed his second game in a row for the Warriors, but it's likely that he'll be back for Wednesday against Portland. As for Moody, his 21 points mark a season high, and he played down the stretch of the fourth quarter and earned some praise from coach Steve Kerr after the game. Moody is averaging 12.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.4 three-pointers in 22.4 minutes over his last five games, and he's quickly solidifying himself as a key part of the rotation.
Dec 1, 2023
Steps up as starter
Moody accumulated 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 28 minutes during Thursday's 120-114 win over the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
With Andrew Wiggins (finger) sidelined, Moody stepped into the starting lineup and delivered quality production. He tied his season high with 13 points, marking his eighth double-digit scoring performance. When Moody has played at least 20 minutes (six times), he's averaging 10.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 23.0 minutes, so if Wiggins remains out, Moody could emerge as a streaming candidate.
Nov 30, 2023
Enters starting lineup
Moody will enter the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Clippers, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Andrew Wiggins (finger) will not play Thursday, but he's believed to be day-to-day. Moody has been hot for the Warriors, as he hasn't missed a shot from the field in his last two outings.
Nov 28, 2023
Returns to bench
Moody isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Kings, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
With Draymond Green returning from his five-game suspension, Moody will be heading back to the bench. Moody is averaging 7.1 points and 3.9 rebounds in 17.8 minutes across his previous 10 appearances coming off the bench this season.
Nov 24, 2023
Moves into starting lineup
Moody will enter the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Spurs, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors have lost seven of their past eight games, so they are probably looking for Moody to provide a spark. He'll be replacing Chris Paul, a move that will shift Stephen Curry back to point guard to open a slot on the wings for Moody.
Nov 23, 2023
Secures nine rebounds
Moody notched eight points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one block in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 123-115 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Moody's scoring production remained consistent Wednesday, but he stepped up on the boards with a season-high nine rebounds. However, he hadn't recorded more than five in any appearance before Wednesday, so his performance against the Suns should be considered an outlier at this point. He's been held below 10 points in nine of his last 12 appearances, averaging 6.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 17.6 minutes per game.
Nov 12, 2023
Continues modest output
Moody ended with eight points (2-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Saturday's 118-110 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Moody is averaging 6.6 points in 16.6 minutes over his last five games. Exceeding that minutes share will be difficult while Golden State is fully healthy, especially with rookie Brandon Podziemski on the rise and Gary Payton factoring into the rotation.
Nov 1, 2023
Shifts back to bench
Moody won't start Wednesday's game against the Kings.
ANALYSIS
Moody drew the starting nod Monday with Klay Thompson (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) sidelined, but he'll return to the bench with both of Thompson and Kuminga healthy. In 19.3 minutes per game, Moddy has tallied 9.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.0 steals/blocks.
Oct 31, 2023
Team option exercised
The Warriors exercised the fourth-year team option on Moody's rookie contract Tuesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody is now tied to the Warriors through the 2024-25 campaign. After garnering a modest bench role in each of his first two seasons, Moody has seen an elevated role to start 2023-24. He's averaging 9.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals in 19.3 minutes across four appearances (one start).
Oct 31, 2023
Reaches double figures as starter
Moody totaled 13 points (5-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and four assists over 21 minutes during Monday's 130-102 victory over the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Moody got the starting nod due to Klay Thompson (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) both inactive Monday, finishing second among Warriors staters in scoring while finishing as one of five players with a double-digit point total against New Orleans. Moody, who posted his highest scoring outing of the year, has tallied 10 or more points in three of his four outings to start the season.
Oct 30, 2023
Joins starters
Moody will start Monday's game against the Pelicans, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody enters the starting lineup, while Chris Paul remains in a sixth man role. Golden State is shorthanded with Klay Thompson (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) both inactive.
Oct 21, 2023
Comes close to double-double
Moody had 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt), eight rebounds, a steal and a block across 17 minutes off the bench in Friday's 122-117 preseason loss to the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Moody is expected to see decent minutes as a scoring threat off the bench, though he'll be the second guard to come off the bench behind Chris Paul. Moody certainly made a good impression in the preseason, as he scored in double digits in four of his five appearances while averaging 13.2 points per game in that span.
Oct 8, 2023
Puts up 15 points Saturday
Moody finished with 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 125-108 preseason win over the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Moody was one of the top scorers for the Warriors in this game, though he wasn't particularly efficient after needing 13 shots to score 15 points. Moody is vying for bench minutes ahead of the regular season, but this performance was certainly a step in the right direction for him.
Apr 24, 2023
Barely in rotation Sunday
Moody accumulated three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt) in five minutes during Sunday's 126-125 win over the Kings in Game 4 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals.
ANALYSIS
Moody played just five minutes in the victory, continuing what has been an unfulfilling series, at least from his perspective. The Warriors, unsurprisingly, have leaned more on the veterans throughout the quarterfinals, opting to offer sporadic minutes to the younger role players. Outside of a lopsided encounter, Moody figures to remain on the fringe of the rotation for the foreseeable future.
Apr 5, 2023
Scores 13 points off bench
Moody totaled 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one block over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 136-125 win over Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
With Klay Thompson (back/rest) out, Moody saw his most minutes and scored his most points since Dec. 21. If Thompson is forced to miss any time, Moody would be a prime candidate to remain in the rotation, but if Thompson misses only one game, Moody's fantasy appeal will plummet.
Mar 5, 2023
Recalled by Golden State
The Warriors have recalled Moody from the Santa Cruz Warriors on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Moody is expected to add bench depth ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lakers, but he doesn't figure to play a significant role. He's made 50 appearances with the Warriors this season, starting three times, but he's only averaging 4.6 points and 1.6 rebounds per contest.
Mar 4, 2023
Headed to Santa Cruz
Moody was assigned to the Santa Cruz Warriors on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Moody has bounced between the NBA and G League levels and has been a steady part of the NBA Warriors' rotation as of late. He has appeared in nine straight games, averaging 2.8 points and 1.0 rebounds in 7.2 minutes across that stretch.
Jan 30, 2023
Back to NBA
Golden State recalled Moody to the NBA club from the G League's Santa Cruz Warriors on Monday, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody and Patrick Baldwin were both elevated and will be available for the Warriors' matchup against the Thunder on Monday. Across 39 NBA appearances (three starts), Moody is averaging 5.2 points and 1.7 rebounds in 14.8 minutes per game.
Dec 22, 2022
Pops for season-high 17
Moody posted 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 143-113 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Getting his second straight start on a night in which Stephen Curry (shoulder), Klay Thompson (knee), Andrew Wiggins (groin) and others were all in street clothes, Moody took advantage of the opportunity and set a new season high in points. The second-year guard has scored in double digits in three of the last five games, going 9-for-18 from three-point range during that stretch, but his role should shrink again once the Warriors' backcourt gets healthier.
Dec 20, 2022
Scores 11 in spot start
Moody had 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 132-94 loss to the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Moody entered the starting five for the second time this season and scored nine of his 11 points from beyond the arc. This marks his third time scoring in double figures in December over nine appearances, as he's struggled to log consistent playing time behind Klay Thompson, Donte DiVincenzo and Anthony Lamb.
Dec 20, 2022
Gets starting nod
Moody is in the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will replace Donte DiVincenzo in the starting lineup Tuesday. The second-year guard will make just his second start of the season and the 13th of his career.
Dec 15, 2022
Strong shooting off bench
Moody ended Wednesday's 125-119 loss to the Pacers with 13 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound and three assists over 23 minutes.
ANALYSIS
The 20-year-old guard got a boost in playing time after Stephen Curry (shoulder) exited the contest, and Moody was able to take advantage. He's quietly been locked in from long range for a while now, going 7-for-11 on three-point attempts in December, and if Curry ends up missing additional time, Moody could have some short-term fantasy value.
Dec 4, 2022
Goes for 11 points Saturday
Moody logged 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-3 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 17 minutes during Saturday's 120-101 victory over Houston.
ANALYSIS
Moody logged some extra minutes in garbage time, flashing his offensive arsenal in the process. Despite an element of upside, Moody's role has been inconsistent, to say the least. Barring injuries to key pieces, he appears likely to remain a backend rotation option better suited to the deepest of leagues.
Nov 22, 2022
Scores 10 in blowout loss
Moody contributed 10 points (2-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 33 minutes during Monday's 128-83 loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors rested all of their starters in the second half of a back-to-back set, so this led several reserves to see more playing time. Moody wasn't part of the starting lineup, but he logged a season-high in minutes off the bench and was one of the few players that delivered a decent performance in a game where Golden State looked outmatched from start to finish. The Warriors should play at full strength in their upcoming game against the Clippers on Wednesday, however, so Moody is expected to return to his end-of-the-bench role.
Nov 19, 2022
Logs three minutes in win
Moody supplied no counting stats in three minutes during Friday's 111-101 victory over New York.
ANALYSIS
Moody saw just three minutes in the win, a season-low mark for the sophomore. After a couple of encouraging performances over the first three weeks, Moody has now played fewer than 10 minutes in three of his past four games. While he is a name to monitor, it appears as though he is the odd man out right now when it comes to rotation minutes.
Nov 9, 2022
Could see reduced role
Warriors coach Steve Kerr implied Wednesday that Moody could be among the younger players who see fewer minutes as Golden State attempts to improve its defense, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors are currently a bottom-five defensive team, and fixing that is something Kerr is clearly going to prioritize in the short term. He noted that the Warriors are operating with a "smaller margin of error," so he may lean more heavily on the likes of Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome -- a pair of two-way players -- instead of Moody, Jonathan Kuminga and James Wiseman. This could simply be a motivational tactic by Kerr, but it's certainly not the most encouraging endorsement of Golden State's young trio. Through 11 appearances this season, Moody is averaging 4.4 points, 1.5 rebounds and 0.8 made threes while shooting 43.7 percent from the floor. The 2021 lottery pick remains an intriguing long-term piece, but he doesn't have much of a path to fantasy relevancy this season.
Nov 7, 2022
Not starting vs. Kings
Moody isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Moody drew a rare spot start Friday with many of Golden State's starters getting the night off to rest, and he'll return to his normal bench role Monday night. He's averaging 5.8 points and 2.1 rebounds in nine games off the bench so far this season.
Nov 5, 2022
Underwhelming in spot start
Moody closed with 14 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 32 minutes during Friday's 114-105 loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Moody joined a host of fringe players in the starting lineup Friday, filling in as the stars were given the night off. Despite the promotion, Moody was unable to capitalize, much to the disappointment of those who streamed him in. Expect to see the main core back on the court against the Kings on Monday, meaning Moody will likely shift back to a bench role.
Nov 4, 2022
Getting starting nod Friday
Moody will join the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pelicans, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody is part of nearly a full lineup change Friday, with the Warriors sitting four of the five regulars in the starting unit. He figures to see some extended run as a result and could be worthy of a look in both DFS and some leagues with daily lineup changes.
Oct 31, 2022
Team option exercised
The Warriors exercised Moody's $3.92 million team option for the 2023-24 season Monday, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody's role has slightly increased to begin the 2022-23 campaign, as he's averaged 6.4 points and 2.4 rebounds in 17.0 minutes per game over his first seven appearances. As a result, it's not very surprising to see his third-year option picked up prior to Monday's deadline.
Oct 26, 2022
Productive night Tuesday
Moody finished with 13 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, three blocks and one steal over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 134-105 loss to the Suns.
ANALYSIS
Moody took advantage of some additional playing time, flashing some upside on both ends of the floor. With Klay Thompson ejected and the game descending into garbage time, the Warriors opted to play their fringe guys down the stretch. While this is highly unlikely to stick moving forward, it does remind managers that Moody is at least a name to watch, especially in deeper formats.
Oct 18, 2022
Not on injury report for opener
Moody (calf) isn't listed on the injury report for Opening Night versus the Lakers on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Moody didn't take part in last Friday's preseason finale versus the Nuggets due to a calf issue, but it appears the problem was relatively minor. He opens the season with no injury designation and will slot into a bench role for the Warriors again in 2022-23.
Oct 14, 2022
Ruled out Friday
Moody (calf) will not play in Friday's preseason matchup with the Nuggets, Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will miss Friday's game due to right calf soreness, although the injury is not believed to be serious, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Moody has impressed this preseason and is not expected to miss any regular season action. The second-year player will provide depth at both the guard and forward positions for the Warriors this season.
Oct 13, 2022
Heading back to bench Friday
Moody won't start Friday's preseason game against the Nuggets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody started Tuesday's exhibition game against the Trail Blazers and tallied 20 points (6-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, two steals, an assist and a block in 23 minutes. However, he'll head back to the bench with several players returning to action for the Warriors on Friday, and he should continue to play a bench role for Golden State once the regular season gets underway.
Oct 11, 2022
Set to start Tuesday
Moody will start in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Trail Blazers, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will start in Tuesday's game due to the Warriors' starters resting. The 2021 No. 14 pick will likely move back to the bench once the regular season begins, but he will have a chance to earn a bigger spot in the rotation Tuesday.
Oct 2, 2022
12 points in preseason win
Moody produced 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt) and two assists in 25 minutes in a 104-95 win Sunday against Washington in a preseason game in Japan.
ANALYSIS
Moody came off the bench and played 25 minutes for the second straight contest. He's scored 17 combined points in his first two preseason contests but hasn't done much else to fill up the stat sheet, recording just one rebound, four assists and a steal. The 20-year-old split his time between the Warriors and the G League last season and appears to be receiving a chance to earn a spot on Golden State's roster for the upcoming season.
Oct 2, 2022
Posts 12 points in preseason win
Moody produced 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt) and two assists in 25 minutes in a 104-95 win Sunday against Washington in a preseason game in Japan.
ANALYSIS
Moody came off the bench and played 25 minutes for the second straight contest. He's scored 17 combined points in his first two preseason contests but hasn't done much else to fill up the stat sheet, recording just one rebound, four assists and a steal. The 20-year-old split his time between the Warriors and the G League last season and appears to be receiving a chance to earn a spot in Golden State's rotation for the upcoming season.
Jul 12, 2022
Nice two-way effort Tuesday
Moody registered 21 points (6-19 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four assists, three rebounds, three steals and one block in 33 minutes during Tuesday's Summer League loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
After erupting for 34 points during his first Las Vegas Summer League performance, Moody has added another strong game to his summer resume. He struggled offensively during his two California Classic appearances, but his defense has remained consistent. In four total Summer League performances, the second-year wing has racked up six steals and six blocks.
Apr 10, 2022
Starting finale at New Orleans
Moody will start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Pelicans, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody hasn't been in the regular rotation for the last several games, and he recently spent time in the G League, but he's back with the Warriors and will get the nod on the wing with Andre Iguodala, Otto Porter and Andrew Wiggins all resting Sunday. In 10 previous starts this season, Moody averaged 9.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 1.9 threes across 22.9 minutes.
Mar 29, 2022
Scores 18 points Monday
Moody chipped in 18 points (7-14 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two blocks and two steals in 27 minutes during Monday's 123-95 loss to the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
With Golden State resting many of its veteran starters, Moody saw his most playing time in nearly three weeks and capitalized with his first double-digit scoring effort over his past seven contests. The rookie forward added a strong defensive presence and finished with a pair each of steals and blocks. Moody can't be counted on for this type of performance when the Warriors are at full strength -- he entered the contest averaging 1.2 points over 13.4 minutes across his previous five games.
Mar 23, 2022
Starting at Miami
Moody will start Wednesday's game against the Heat, Kendra Andrews of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors have several regulars sitting out after Tuesday night's embarrassing loss to Orlando, so Moody will move into the starting lineup for the first time since March 10. In nine starts this season, Moody has averaged 10.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 2.1 threes.
Mar 22, 2022
Plays five minutes in return
Moody (shoulder) chipped in no counting stats in five minutes during Tuesday's 94-90 loss to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Moody was a game-time call heading into Tuesday and ended up seeing just five minutes. It's possible he starts seeing more time once his shoulder improves since Stephen Curry (ankle) is out for the near future.
Mar 21, 2022
Game-time call Tuesday
Moody (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Orlando.
ANALYSIS
Moody missed Sunday's matchup with San Antonio due to right shoulder soreness but has a chance to return to action Tuesday. The team should provide another update on his status as tipoff nears.
Mar 20, 2022
Listed as out vs. Spurs
Moody (shoulder) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
A sore shoulder will cost Moody at least one game as the Warriors finish out their four-game home stand. He initially sustained the injury during Wednesday's game against Boston, in which he played just nine minutes. Consider Moody day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Magic in Orlando, which kicks off a five-game road swing.
Mar 18, 2022
Day-to-day with shoulder injury
Moody (shoulder) didn't practice Friday and remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody exited Wednesday's game early and was unable to return due to the right shoulder injury. The Warriors hope to have Gary Payton (knee) back for Sunday's game, but Damion Lee and Jordan Poole could see extra minutes if Moody is unable to go.
Mar 16, 2022
Suffers shoulder injury
Moody is questionable to return to Wednesday's game gains the Celtics with a right shoulder injury, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody saw only nine minutes of action before departing with the injury during the first half. Stephen Curry (foot) won't return with his own injury and Andrew Wiggins (illness) is unavailable, leaving coach Steve Kerr without his usual dearth of options in the backcourt and wing.
Mar 12, 2022
Moves out of starting unit
Moody will return to the bench against Milwaukee on Saturday, with Jordan Poole entering the starting lineup for the Warriors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody started each of the previous three games for Golden State, averaging 15.0 points, 4.3 boards, 1.7 assists and 2.0 three-pointers. However, he scored only five points in his previous contest and will now yield his spot in the starting lineup to Poole, who has been putting up big numbers of late. This will be the first time that Golden State will start Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Poole in the same contest.
Mar 8, 2022
Makes most of starting opportunity
Moody registered 30 points (10-23 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 36 minutes during Monday's 131-124 loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Moody was inserted into the starting lineup with Golden State electing to rest four starters, and the rookie guard shined with a career-best 30 points in the competitive loss. The 19-year-old came into the contest with just one 20-point game under his belt, so this was an unexpectedly explosive offensive performance for him. Despite the big game, Moody will likely drop back to a quiet reserve role when the Warriors' usual starters return to action Tuesday.
Mar 7, 2022
Gets another chance to start
Moody is listed in the starting five for Monday's game against the Nuggets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will receive an opportunity to enter the starting five with four of Golden State's usual starters out of action Monday evening. This marks his seventh start of the season.
Mar 4, 2022
Hot off bench
Moody had 13 points (5-5 FG, 3-3 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over 16 minutes during Thursday's 122-113 loss to Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Moody (eye) showed no signs of discomfort related to his bruised socket, connecting on all five of his field goals in a limited role. The return of Klay Thompson (illness) pushes Moody deeper in the rotation, but the rookie from Arkansas has displayed enticing microwave-scorer ability occasionally.
Mar 3, 2022
Available against Mavericks
Moody (eye) is available for Thursday's game against Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Moody was probable for Thursday's matchup due to a bruised eye, so it isn't very surprising that he'll officially be available. Across his last three appearances, he's averaged 5.7 points and 2.3 rebounds in 14.7 minutes per game. Although he started each of the last two games, he should return to a bench role Thursday since Klay Thompson (illness) is also available.
Mar 2, 2022
Upgraded to probable
Moody (eye) is now listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Moody was able to practice on Wednesday despite the bruised eye he suffered Tuesday, and it now appears likely that he'll be available for Thursday's tilt with Dallas. The 19-year-old is averaging 3.4 points and 1.4 rebounds across 9.9 minutes per game this season.
Mar 2, 2022
Questionable Thursday
Moody (eye) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody suffered a bruised eye during Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves, but he was able to participate in Wednesday's practice session. If he's unavailable Thursday, Damion Lee, Juan Toscano-Anderson and Gary Payton could see additional run.
Mar 1, 2022
Exits with bruised eye
Moody exited Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves due to a bruised eye, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Initial reports suggested Moody was dealing with an arm injury, so this is quite the shift in diagnosis. Any missed time for Moody going forward could result in more minutes for Damion Lee, Juan Toscano-Anderson and/or Gary Payton.
Mar 1, 2022
Walks to locker room
Moody went to the locker room during the first quarter of Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves due to a right arm/shoulder issue, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody should be considered questionable to return. If he sits out the remainder of the game or misses any more time moving forward, extra minutes could be in store for Damion Lee, Gary Payton and Juan Toscano-Anderson.
Feb 27, 2022
Starting role reaps very little
Moody closed with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and five rebounds in 25 minutes during Sunday's 107-101 loss to Dallas.
ANALYSIS
Moody moved into the starting lineup, replacing Klay Thompson who was out due to an illness. While this was a bit surprising, it was likely so that they could keep Jordan Poole in his usual sixth-man role. Moody has shown flashes this season but unfortunately, he was unable to make the most of Sunday's opportunity. Thompson is unlikely to miss extended time here and so Moody is not a player to be targeting outside of deeper formats.
Feb 27, 2022
Starting in place of Klay
Moody will start Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
With Klay Thompson (illness) sidelined, Moody will get the nod on the wing as the Warriors go with a smaller lineup featuring Andrew Wiggins at the nominal power forward spot. Moody should be set for increased minutes after seeing his role vacillate from game-to-game over the last couple of weeks. The rookie out of Arkansas started three straight games from Jan. 31 through Feb. 3, averaging 12.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.7 made threes in 28.7 minutes per game.
Feb 7, 2022
Back to bench
Moody isn't starting Monday's game against Oklahoma City.
ANALYSIS
Moody has started each of the last three contests for the Warriors, but he'll return to a bench role for Monday's clash with Otto Porter back in action. He's averaging 4.0 points and 2.3 rebounds in 10.6 minutes in his last eight games off the bench.
Feb 3, 2022
Set to start Thursday
Moody will start Thursday against the Kings, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Franciscoreports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will make his fourth start of the season against the Kings, while it'll be his third consecutive start. The rookie has been efficient in his last two games, averaging 15.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 31.0 minutes. Expect Jordan Poole and Damion Lee to see minutes off the bench behind Moody.
Feb 2, 2022
Cruises to career-high scoring mark
Moody put up a career-high 20 points (6-12 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT) to go with seven rebounds and one assist across 37 minutes Tuesday in the Warriors' 124-120 win over the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Though he's been outside of head coach Steve Kerr's rotation for much of the season, Moody has picked up consecutive starts with Golden State missing several key players. After all of Otto Porter (foot), Andre Iguodala (hip), Draymond Green (back), James Wiseman (knee) and Nemanja Bjelica (back) sat out Monday's win over the Rockets, Stephen Curry (toe), Klay Thompson (rest) and Andrew Wiggins (knee) joined them among the Warriors' unavailable players for the second half of the back-to-back set. Those absences allowed Moody's playing time to climb an extra 12 minutes from Monday to Tuesday, and the rookie did his best Thompson impression by lighting up the Spurs from downtown. Moody could hold down a rotation spot Thursday against the Kings on the heels of back-to-back strong outings, but expect his playing time and usage to dip significantly with all of Curry, Thompson, Wiggins and Porter likely to be back in action.
Feb 1, 2022
Plays 25 minutes in start
Moody ended Monday's 122-108 win over the Rockets with 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 25 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Surprisingly, Moody was given the start at shooting guard with Otto Porter (foot) and Draymond Green (back) out, and he made the most of the opportunity, putting in 11 points behind three three-pointers while tying his career high in minutes. For the most part, Moody has not been a part of the Warriors' regular rotation of late, but with Klay Thompson (rest) sitting out Tuesday against the Spurs, it's very possible he could hold onto his rotation spot for at least one more contest.

Making random start Monday
Moody will start Monday's game against the Rockets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie out of Arkansas will make just his second start of the season as the Warriors play without Draymond Green (back) and Otto Porter (foot). The reason behind the decision by coach Steve Kerr is unclear, but Moody has not even been a part of the Warriors' rotation for most of the last month. He's only appeared in five of Golden State's last 17 games, spending considerable time in the G League during that stretch.
Jan 18, 2022
Will be available Tuesday
Moody (knee) is listed as available for Tuesday's contest against the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Moody has bounced back-and-forth between Golden State and Santa Cruz for the majority of the season. At the NBA level, he's averaging just 2.1 points and 1.0 rebounds in 7.0 minutes per game, so even if he sees playing time Tuesday, he's unlikely to be fantasy relevant.
Jan 17, 2022
Game-time decision for Tuesday
Moody is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Moody was assigned to Golden State's G League affiliate Wednesday, but it appears he's back with the NBA squad after being added to the team's injury report ahead of Tuesday. He last appeared for the Warriors on Jan. 11 against Memphis, scoring two points and recording one rebound and one assist in seven minutes.
Jan 11, 2022
Back with Warriors
Moody was recalled from the G League on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Moody spent just one day in the G League and tallied a game-high 37 points across 36 minutes during Santa Cruz's overtime win Monday. The rookie will presumably be available off the bench for the Warriors on Tuesday versus the Grizzlies.
Jan 8, 2022
Recalled by Golden State
Moody was recalled from the Santa Cruz Warriors on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Moody was sent down Friday and logged 31 points, seven rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block in 40 minutes during the 2OT win over the Blue. He's appeared in 24 games for Golden State and has averaged 2.1 points in 7.0 minutes per contest.
Dec 29, 2021
Clears COVID protocols
Moody cleared covid protocols Wednesday, Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody was removed from the injury report and is expected to be available for Thursday's matchup with the Nuggets. The 19-year-old has seen limited minutes in his rookie season but should be available as a depth option.
Dec 24, 2021
Placed in protocols
Moody was placed in health and safety protocols Friday.
ANALYSIS
Moody has seen spot minutes all season, so his absence won't make a huge impact. That said, his absence could open up more minutes for Gary Payton and Jonathan Kuminga.
Dec 18, 2021
Shifts back to bench
Moody will come off the bench Saturday against the Raptors, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
The Warriors are sitting most of the regulars Saturday, but Moody will shift to the bench while Damion Lee, Jonathan Kuminga and Juan Toscano-Anderson start on the wing. Moody should still see plenty of minutes.
Dec 17, 2021
Starting Friday
Moody will start Friday's game against Orlando, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moody will make his first career start Friday with Jordan Poole (COVID-19 protocols) sidelined. The 19-year-old has averaged just 1.4 points in 5.3 minutes per game to begin the season.
Dec 10, 2021
Rejoins parent club
Moody was recalled by the Warriors on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Moody has been dominant in the G League recently and will provide depth for the Warriors in Saturday's game against the 76ers. He's made 16 appearances with Golden State this year and has averaged 1.6 points in 5.8 minutes per contest.
Dec 6, 2021
Rejoins parent club
Moody was recalled by the Warriors on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Moody was assigned to the Santa Cruz Warriors on Wednesday and topped 20 points in each of his two G League appearances since then. He's appeared in 15 NBA games this year and has averaged 1.5 points in 5.9 minutes per contest.
Nov 28, 2021
Available at Los Angeles
Moody (shoulder) is available against the Clippers on Sunday, according to Anthony Slater of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Despite having shoulder soreness before the Warriors' matchup Sunday, Moody will be another guard available for them. He is averaging 1.6 points and 6.2 minutes of playing time this year. But considering the unimpressive rates, fantasy managers should not expect Moody to supply meaningful value unless he establishes better consistency.
Nov 27, 2021
Dealing with shoulder soreness
Moody is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Clippers due to right shoulder soreness.
ANALYSIS
Moody is back with Golden State after dropped 17 points and five rebounds for Santa Clara on Friday. However, he appears to have picked up a shoulder issue that may keep him sidelined for Sunday's contest.
Nov 27, 2021
Back with parent club
Moody was recalled by the Warriors on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Moody was sent down to the G League on Friday and produced 17 points and five rebounds during Santa Cruz's 112-110 win. He is now back with the parent club, which starts a two-game road trip Sunday against the Clippers.
Nov 26, 2021
Assigned to G League
Moody has been assigned to the Santa Cruz Warriors on Friday.
ANALYSIS
The rookie out of Arkansas has gotten off to a slow start to his NBA career, averaging just 1.6 points in 6.2 minutes per showing. Golden State will look to get him more live-game reps during his time in the G League. The 6-foot-5 guard figures to eventually get back called up to the Warriors' main roster sooner rather than later.
Nov 6, 2021
Plays eight minutes in victory
Moody amassed five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and one rebound in eight minutes during Friday's 126-85 victory over New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Moody saw some run in the victory as the game descended into garbage time. Jonathan Kuminga (two points, three rebounds and one assist in seven minutes) also took to the court, highlighting just how deep into the rotation the Warriors were able to go. While the playing time is nice, neither player has any fantasy value at this stage.
Oct 29, 2021
Demoted to G League
Moody has been assigned to the Santa Cruz Warriors, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie out of Arkansas has averaged just 3.3 minutes per game thus far this season while scoring only 0.7 points per game. Golden State has decided to let him develop in their G League affiliate for now. The No. 14 overall selection of the draft should eventually make his way back to the Warriors as the year goes on.
Oct 16, 2021
Hot from three in preseason
Moody shot 6-for-13 from three in the preseason.
ANALYSIS
Moody saw 14.1 minutes per game and averaged 5.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals. He'll be competing for wing minutes on a relatively deep Warriors squad, so it seems unlikely that he'll be fantasy-relevant this season.
