Sunday’s second-half surge from the Golden State Warriors wasn’t enough to recover against the Los Angeles Lakers. The dubs were able to tie the game after being down nine points in the fourth quarter, but never took the lead and eventually fell 113-108 to the Lakers.
Following the loss, Golden State made a few roster moves. The team announced that they had reassigned Moses Moody and Lester Quinones to the Santa Cruz Warriors, the Dubs’ G-League affiliate.

The Warriors shared a quick rundown of Moody’s stats this year, writing, “Moody is averaging 4.6 points, 1.6 rebounds and 13.4 minutes in 50 games (three starts) with Golden State this season.

They did the same for Lester Quinones, adding, “Quinones, who signed a 10-day contract with Golden State on March 2, owns averages of 19.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 31.2 minutes in 41 games with Santa Cruz this season (Showcase and regular season combined). The guard was named the NBA G League Player of the Week for games played from February 13 to February 26.”

In his 50 appearances for the Dubs this year, Lamb has played about 20 minutes each time. The 25-year-old has put up some solid numbers in his limited time, averaging 7 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game, while shooting 47.5% from the field and 37.9% from deep.
