JUST NOW: Warriors get boost amid Wiggins’ concerning injury…

Due to their poor play this season, some people are wondering if the dynasty that includes Stephen Curry, Klay

Thompson, and Draymond Green is coming to an end. Although the squad is struggling to stay in the play-in race, is

it really in their best interests to finish this season there? According to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, the Warriors

did receive some relief from their injury situation this past weekend with the return of Moses Moody to the starting

lineup. This announcement is made when Andrew Wiggins is still questionable for Monday’s Warriors game against

the Brooklyn Nets.

Moses Moody has been sidelined by the Warriors for the past nine games due to a foot ailment. The first documented

 

foot injury to Andrew Wiggins occurred during the team’s most recent game against the Atlanta Hawks. Though the

exact number of games he might miss is still unknown, it’s safe to assume he won’t play against the Nets. This

season, Moody has been doing admirably. 34 games have been played by him, four of which he started, averaging

about 18 minutes a night. With a shooting percentage of 48.2 percent from the field, 35.8 percent from three points,

and 78.9 percent from the free throw line, he is averaging a career-high 8.7 points and 3.1 rebounds per game.

Conversely, Wiggins hasn’t been playing regularly this year. With 43.7 percent shooting from the field, 31.1 percent

from three-point range, and 71.7 percent from the free throw line, he’s been averaging a career-low 12.2 points, 4.2

rebounds, and 1.5 assists.
