The Golden State Warriors fell 126-116 to the Los Angeles Lakers at Crypto.comn Arena on Sunday night, but the bigger news may have emerged pre-game when head coach Steve Kerr revealed fifth-year wing Moses Moody would miss the rest of preseason due to a calf injury.
Moody had started for the Warriors in their first two preseason games, yet this untimely injury could grant Brandin Podziemski the shooting guard role back for the season opener against the Los Angeles Lakers on October 21.

Golden State are hopeful that Moody will be back in time for the season opener, but the chances of him returning straight back into a starting role might be limited after missing what will be the final three games of preseason.
