The Golden State Warriors struggled to find a consistent starting lineup for the majority of the season.
It resulted in the Dubs struggling to win games as they plummeted below a Play-In Tournament spot at one point in the season.
However, the Warriors have seemingly figured out their lineup over the last few weeks.
A key change made by head coach Steve Kerr was allowing young players like Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody to get quality minutes.
It has resulted in the Dubs finding extra depth in the roster and Moody’s crucial Tuesday night performance was a perfect example of this.
In the absence of Andrew Wiggins, Moody stepped up in the starting lineup and received huge praise from Kerr in the postgame conference, as revealed via Warriors on NBCS on Twitter.
“I loved what Moses did. It didn’t surprise me at all. He’s such a pro,” Kerr said.

While Moody’s excellent performance shocked many fans in the NBA community, Kerr remained unsurprised by it.
Kerr continued by claiming Moody already plays like a professional despite being one of the youngest players on the roster.
Speaking of Moody’s performance, he had 12 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist for the Warriors during their incredible 123-112 win over the Washington Wizards.
Considering Moody is still 21 years old, he hasn’t been awarded a lot of opportunities to shine for the Warriors.
But he has managed to play 43 games this season, where he has put up 7.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 0.8 assists per game for the Warriors.
Thanks to Moody’s crucial performance, the Dubs bounced back from their previous defeat against the Denver Nuggets and they improved their record to 30-27 this season.
