Moses Moody will miss the final three games of the Warriors’ preseason with a left calf issue, reports ESPN’s Anthony Slater (via Twitter).
Head coach Steve Kerr was quoted as saying he was “not too concerned” regarding the injury, and Slater adds that the Warriors hope that Moody can return in time for the season opener.
Moody started both of the Warriors’ preseason games to this point, averaging 14.5 points and 1.0 steal per game while hitting seven of his 12 three-point attempts.
After years of being in and out of the Warriors’ rotation, Moody seems to have finally carved out a role for himself as a floor spacer and versatile wing defender in Kerr’s main rotation. If he were to miss time, it could open the door for Brandin Podziemski and Buddy Hield to earn extra minutes.
