20+3, Thompson's replacement was found, and the Warriors cultivated him for a season and achieved initial results

Since Thompson's departure, there has been a lot of speculation about which player the Warriors will develop to replace Thompson. Now, the Warriors have finally found a replacement. This player has really shown results after a season of training, and has been very consistent on both offensive and defensive ends, and he is Moses Moody.

Moody is undoubtedly the starting point for the Warriors right now, and he currently has a higher tactical position on the team than even Kuminga. In today's game against the Spurs, Moody shot 7-of-11 from beyond the three-point line and scored 20 points, 3 rebounds, assists, 3 steals and 1 block. Moody's role on the court this season has actually surpassed Thompson's role on the court last season, because Moody is better on the defensive end.

Moody is indeed a player worth developing, in fact, this season is technically the first season that the Warriors have cultivated Moody. Because Moody's playing time has been inconsistent in previous seasons, and was even abandoned by Kerr for a long time. This season is Moody's first season in the rotation since entering the league. So the current data presented by Moody's is not his upper limit, and may be just the beginning. Maybe after another 1~2 seasons of training, Moody's projection will be more accurate, and the defensive end will be better. So Moody is a good fit for the Warriors as a long-term roster.

And Moody is a very low-key player, never ostentatious on the court, nor complaining about the ball, his style of play is also very calm, this type of player is very rare, the Warriors must cherish. Fortunately, the Warriors have signed Moody to a contract extension, and he will remain on the Warriors' roster for the next few years. But Kuminga may not necessarily continue to wear the Warriors' jersey in the future. The Warriors' contract extension with Kuminga has not been finalized, and Kuminga's role on the court is not obvious at the moment, and even the Warriors are better in the games he doesn't play. Perhaps the Warriors will choose to give up Kuminga this offseason.
