Warriors extend Moses Moody on 3-year, $39 million deal
Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody has agreed to a three-year, $39 million rookie contract extension with the franchise, CEO of Klutch Sports, Rich Paul, told ESPN on Sunday night.
Warriors officials and Paul have been negotiating a new deal for Moody, who is in the final year of a rookie contract he signed after being drafted with the No. 14 pick in 2021.
Moody has developed into a key, reliable rotation player for Steve Kerr during this year's training camp and is expected to receive an enhanced role for the Warriors this upcoming campaign.
Last season, Moody averaged eight points in 17.5 minutes in 66 games played, setting career highs in scoring, playing time, rebounds, steals and blocks.
At the end of that season, Kerr said he wanted to see Moody become a more aggressive shooter, especially on catch-and-shoot shots. Moody averaged 15.5 points in 20 minutes through the preseason, including three starts. He shot 45.6% from the floor and 39.4% from 3 on 5.5 attempts.
Kerr has been vocal about how impressive Moody has been in training camp and throughout the preseason.
