Warriors' Moses Moody: Remains out with sprained wrist
Rotowire
Moody (wrist) won't play in Friday's game against Minnesota, Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Though Moody will wind up missing a fifth consecutive game Friday, head coach Steve Kerr said after Wednesday's practice that the fifth-year wing is on track to join the Warriors for their upcoming six-game road trip that begins Sunday in New York. Moody's continued absence Friday opens up more playing time for Will Richard, Pat Spencer and Gary Payton on the wing.

Warriors' Moses Moody: Cleared for on-court work
Rotowire
The Warriors announced Tuesday that Moody (wrist) has resumed on-court work and will be re-evaluated later this week.
Moody is set to miss a fourth consecutive contest Tuesday due to a right wrist sprain, though there's a chance he will return Friday against the Timberwolves. If the 23-year-old wing remains sidelined Friday, Gui Santos, LJ Cryer and Gary Payton (ankle) would be candidates for increased playing time.

Warriors' Moses Moody: Out again Saturday
Rotowire
Moody (wrist) won't play Saturday in Oklahoma City.
This will be Moody's second straight game on the sidelines, and it's not encouraging that he's getting ruled out a full day in advance of tipoff. With Monday's game in Utah being the first of a back-to-back set, there's a chance Moody will need to spend at least one more game on the inactive list. His absence will open up minutes for Gui Santos and Malevy Leons.

Warriors' Moses Moody: Strong effort in loss
Rotowire
Moody logged 24 points (7-13 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 113-109 loss to the Pelicans.
With Stephen Curry (knee) still on the shelf, Moody continues to take advantage of some extra usage. He has been trending in the right direction for Golden State, posting averages of 18.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 3.5 three-pointers over his last four games.

Warriors' Moses Moody: Hits for 17 points in defeat
Rotowire
Moody registered 17 points (6-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 126-113 loss to San Antonio.
Moody's shot was dialed in during the loss, but the starting lineup failed to produce what was needed down the stretch against the Spurs. Moody's role has been relatively steady since Jimmy Butler's (knee) season-ending injury, and the 6-foot-5 fifth-year pro possesses much-needed versatility that can fill gaps at a few different positions. Although his scoring isn't always prolific, he's registered single digits only once over the past 15 contests.

Warriors' Moses Moody: Flashes big upside
Rotowire
Moody logged 25 points (8-17 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals in 39 minutes during Saturday's 105-99 loss to the Lakers.
Moody led the Warriors in a losing effort against the Lakers. With Stephen Curry sidelined by a knee injury, Moody filled the void of outside shooting by hitting five shots from distance. The former lottery pick also had a block and three steals in 39 minutes, and he should continue to see expanded usage as long as Curry is sidelined.

Warriors' Moses Moody: Surpasses 20 minutes in debut
Rotowire
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.
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.

Rotowire
Moody (calf) is doubtful for Tuesday's regular-season opener against the Lakers, Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
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.

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.
