After a quintessential Moses Moody hustle play — in which he crashed the offensive boards with no one on the New York Knicks boxing him out, giving him a wide-open putback to break a 17-all deadlock in the first quarter — Moody displayed equal levels of hustle in finding the man assigned to him on defense: Knicks’ superstar guard Jalen Brunson.
Brunson is known for his combination of craft, shiftiness, and bruising style of play, all packed within a burly 6’2” frame. Moody’s three-inch height advantage and 7’1” wingspan (the same as Draymond Green) allows him to be somewhat of a foil to Brunson.
