Moses Moody's Seven 3-Pointers Leave Pelicans Reeling in Disarray. The Golden State Warriors' young sharpshooter torched a lackluster New Orleans Pelicans team, sinking seven three-pointers in the first quarter en route to a 124-106 victory.
Moody's impressive display eclipsed Klay Thompson's all-time record of nine triples in a single quarter set by the legendary shooter back in 2015. It was a career-high 32 points for Moody, with fellow sharpshooter Brandin Podziemski adding 19 off the bench to complement Jimmy Butler's 18.
Despite the decisive win, the Pelicans' struggles continued unabated. Injuries plagued their starting lineup, including Zion Williamson and Jordan Poole, who ruled out due to injury. The team's search for new leadership is ongoing after parting ways with coach Willie Green last week.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr expressed his sympathies towards Green, who had been an assistant on his Warriors staff from 2016-19. "He's incredibly poised and mature about it," Kerr said of Green's situation.
The game was marked by other notable moments, including Draymond Green confronting a fan during the second quarter and Steph Curry finally getting back into the scoring act after struggling early in the contest.
