Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody hit seven 3-pointers in the first quarter of Sunday night\u2019s game against the New Orleans Pelicans, on his way to scoring a career high 32 points in a 124-106 win.<\/p>\n
Moody noted after the game that he had a few outings both in the G League, and early in his NBA career, where he got rolling, but nothing of this magnitude.<\/p>\n
The fifth-year swingman scored 21 points in the first quarter and helped the Warriors set a new team-high in points for any quarter this season (44). He finished with eight 3-pointers in the game and wore a smile on his face at the podium while re-telling a story about his uncle.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s actually my first time having eight 3s,\u201d Moody said. \u201cI hit seven 3s, like, 30 times in my life. I\u2019ve done that plenty of times. But I got an uncle that told me when I was young, the most he hit was eight, so I\u2019ve been trying to get it my whole life, and he\u2019s like put a curse on me. I\u2019ve never gotten it, so I\u2019ll probably give him this jersey or something, it\u2019s cool.\u201d<\/p>\n
Moody\u2019s performance paced an otherwise sleepy looking Warriors group to its third-straight win. In the process, he also gave Warriors personnel flashbacks to seeing Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson get hot and knock down 3-pointers all over the floor.<\/p>\n
\nMOSES MOODY.
STEPHEN CURRY.
KLAY THOMPSON.<\/p>\nThe only Warriors to make 7 threes in a quarter!<\/p>\n
