Golden State Warriors rookie Moses Moody is soaking up information from everywhere in his first year. He's able to learn from some of the best basketball minds in the world, playing alongside Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, and it doesn't stop with only his teammates.

After scoring 11 points and a career-high 3 three-pointers Moody was asked about his playing time with the Warriors compared to other rookies in the NBA.

“I can't compare my journey and how my story's going to other guys around the league,” said the Warriors youngster. “Rich Paul, said in an interview, ‘Comparison is the thief of joy.'…Isaiah Thomas said in another interview, his advice to a young guy coming up in the league is ‘just to take the punches. Don't fight.'”

Paul is the founder of Klutch Sports and Moody's agent and Thomas is a player the rookie looks up to, and he's applying their words of wisdom to his career.
