Warriors Rule Moses Moody Out for Remainder of Preseason With Calf Issue

Steve Kerr characterized the calf tweak as minor, setting a one‑week re‑evaluation to keep him on track for opening night.

Overview

  • Moses Moody will miss the final three preseason games after tweaking his left calf, Kerr announced before the Lakers game in Los Angeles.
  • He sustained the injury in practice and underwent MRI evaluation as a precaution, according to Kerr’s updates reported by Anthony Slater.
  • The Warriors plan to re-evaluate Moody in about a week and are hopeful he can be available for the Oct. 21 regular-season opener against the Lakers.
  • Kerr said the team is not too concerned about the issue and will prioritize caution with the fifth-year swingman.
  • With Moody out, Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski are picking up wing minutes, a notable test as Moody is expected to be a key point-of-attack defender and floor spacer.
