Andrew Wiggins and Klay Thompson led the way as the Warriors held off a late rally to beat the Wizards.
He turned a corner in his career by becoming this kind of player for the Warriors. Wiggins was a plus-21 in the win, which easily fit the eye test. The Warriors have been searching near and far for consistency this season. Wiggins playing at this level will help bring them to where they believe they should be.
Moody has received numerous DNPs this season and has seen his spot diminish as the season goes on. How can he get more minutes? By doing exactly what he did early Monday night. The young wing was all over the place making the kind of hustle plays that earned trust last season. In the first half, he played six-plus minutes and was a plus-15 in plus/minus with two rebounds, one steal and one point.
Though Moody only took one shot, a missed 3-pointer, and scored only one point, he was a plus-11 in eight minutes. Those are the kind of impactful minutes they need from him going forward.The Warriors only had 10 players available, and nine saw action against the Wizards. As the Warriors continue to be without Curry and Payton for the time being, as well as Andre Iguodala, their win over the Wizards will serve as the standard of what they need out of the bench.
