Mar 23, 2026; Dallas, Texas, USA; Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody (4) waves to fans while leaving the court on a stretcher during overtime against the Dallas Mavericks at American Airlines Center. Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody’s season is over after he tore the patellar tendon in his left knee on a noncontact play against the Dallas Mavericks, ESPN reported on Tuesday.
Moody, 23, was injured while attempting a dunk in the Warriors’ 137-131 road victory on Monday night.
Golden State led 136-131 when Moody stole the ball from Cooper Flagg and headed for a clinching dunk with 1:09 to go in overtime. However, Moody had his left knee crumble beneath him as he attempted to elevate for the hoop, with the shot not reaching the rim. Moody had to be stretchered off the floor after the team’s medical staff attended to his left knee.
The Warriors said afterward that Moody, who had missed the previous 10 games with a sprained right wrist, would have an MRI on Tuesday. He finished with 23 points, three rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks in 34 minutes.
Moody this season averaged career bests of 12.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.6 blocks and 25.7 minutes in 60 games (49 starts).
The Warriors (34-38) have 10 games remaining in the regular season. Through Monday, they are 10th in the Western Conference and have the final berth in the play-in tournament.
Golden State selected Moody in the first round (14th overall) in the 2021 NBA Draft.
For his career, Moody averages 8.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 18.3 minutes in 315 regular-season games (106 starts) for the Warriors since 2021. He also has started two of 37 postseason games, including playing 13 games as a rookie in a reserve role in Golden State’s run to the 2022 NBA championship.
He signed a three-year, $39 million contract extension before the start of this season.

MAAC rebranded, now The Metro Conference

The Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference is shedding part of its name while trying to maintain tradition.
The conference will rebrand as The Metro Conference effective July 1, as an element of strategic planning launched three years ago.
“The goal of this project was to establish a bold and clear identity that eliminated longstanding confusion surrounding the Conference’s name,” said Travis Tellitocci, MAAC commissioner, in a news release. “Throughout this process, we wanted to create a brand that better positions the Conference for the future while still honoring the tradition and foundation that have defined this league for the past 45 years. We are excited about this next chapter and the future of the Metro Conference.”
Confusion existed with the similar-sounding Mid-American Conference — the Cleveland-based MAC. The length of the full name of the conference also “created inconsistencies in how the brand was referenced and frequently led to the conference being referred to incorrectly,” the new Metro Conference said in its release.
The rebranding includes a new red-and-blue logo with a bold type.
The MAAC was founded in 1980 and has 13 member schools, largely based in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut: Canisius, Fairfield, Iona, Marist, Merrimack, Mount St. Mary’s, Niagara, Quinnipiac, Rider, Sacred Heart, Saint Peter’s and Siena.

Jets add veteran Younghoe Koo to kicking competition
Nov 16, 2025; East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA; New York Giants place kicker Younghoe Koo (37) on the field before the game against the Green Bay Packers at MetLife Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images The New York Jets signed veteran kicker Younghoe Koo on Thursday, adding him to the competition for the open job.
The Jets also will have Cade York and Lenny Krieg in camp trying to win the position.
Koo, 31, was named the starting kicker of the Atlanta Falcons in 2019 and held the job until his release early in the 2025 season. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2020 as he made 37-of-39 field goal tries.
However, Koo was let go a week after missing a 43-yard field goal attempt that would have tied the season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The New York Giants signed Koo to the practice squad after his release from the Falcons and was moved to the roster in November to replace the injured Graham Gano. The Giants released Koo after a Week 15 loss. He was 4-of-6 on field goals with a long of 44 and made 11-of-12 point-after attempts.
He also previously played with the Atlanta Legends of the Alliance of American Football.
In his NFL career, Koo has hit 185-of-217 field-goal attempts (85.3%) and made 186-of-194 extra-point tries in 98 games.
Last season, Nick Folk handled the kicking duties for the Jets. After converting all 22 of his extra-point attempts and 28-of-29 field goal tries, Folk signed with the Falcons in March.
