Warriors head coach Steve Kerr and players from both teams were left in disbelief.

Moody was down for several minutes as medical personnel attended to him. Kerr said after the game that Moody was getting X-rays at the American Airlines Center.

"Just saw his leg buckle. Saw him go down in a heap, in pain," Kerr told reporters. "We don’t know what it is, but it sure looked bad. Just hoping for the best. What the best-case scenario is, that’s what we’re all hoping for. But it looked bad."

Moody was playing in his first game since he sprained his right wrist. He led the Warriors with 23 points and three steals before the freak accident.
