The Golden State Warriors are set to face the Houston Rockets in Texas for the NBA Cup, but will be without Moses Moody. The young guard has been averaging 7.4 points and 1.9 rebounds this season, though he has struggled to secure a consistent role.

Despite Moody's absence, the Warriors are looking to build on their recent victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Currently positioned fifth in the Western Conference, they aim to improve their 14-9 record against the Rockets, whom they previously defeated earlier this month.
