The Warriors fell to the Toronto Raptors 119-100 at Scotiabank Arena on December 19, but their rookie Moses Moody had the best game of his young NBA career.
Moody played a career-high 25 minutes in the loss and he was praised by Warriors head coach Steve Kerr.
"Moses is going to be a really good player in this league. He's got a good feel. These last two nights have been good for him," Kerr told the reporters.
"Just to feel the athleticism and to get reps, to figure out his own spots. Having this kind of action on tape, we'll be able to watch film with both these guys and they'll learn a lot."
