Early life
As a child, Moseley earned the nickname "Bones" because of her thin physique.[2][3] Moseley attended and played basketball at Paint Branch High School in Burtonsville, Maryland. She was named first-team All-Met as a junior by The Washington Post. Late in her junior year of high school, Moseley suffered a torn ACL in her right knee, preventing her from playing basketball during her senior year.[4][5] ESPN ranked her as a four-star basketball prospect coming out of high school.[6]
College career

Perspective
Committing to play for the Maryland Terrapins, who recruited her in spite of her ACL injury,[2] Moseley was an immediate contributor to the team. In the third game of her freshman season (2011–2012), Moseley led Maryland in scoring, with 26 points in a win against Towson.[7] She was named to the ACC All-Freshman and All-Academic teams.[3]
Moseley missed the 2012–2013 season after suffering another torn ACL, this time in her left knee, in a preseason scrimmage.[4][8]
Moseley returned to the team for her redshirt sophomore season, making 8 of 8 free throws in her first game back from the injury in a win against South Florida and adding 11 points in a victory over Army in the 2014 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament. In her junior year, she made two late-game free throws and a steal to help Maryland defeat sixth-ranked Tennessee in the 2015 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament, propelling the Terrapins to their second consecutive Final Four.[3]
In her senior year, Moseley tied her career-high 26 points set as a freshman as she led her team in scoring in a win against Old Dominion.[9] In an interview before Maryland's 2016 senior day, head coach Brenda Frese stated that though she was a bench player for Maryland, Moseley "would be a starter on most teams".[10] She surpassed 1,000 career points in a win against Northwestern in the semifinals of the Big Ten tournament[11] and recorded 16 points, seven assists, and three rebounds in a loss to Washington in the 2016 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament, which ended her college career.[3] Moseley was named the Big Ten's Sixth Player of the Year[12] and second-team All-Big Ten for the 2015–2016 season.[13]
Moseley played in 142 games in her college career.[14]
Professional career
The Indiana Fever selected Moseley in the second round with the 21st overall pick in the 2016 WNBA draft.[15] She averaged 1.9 points and 1.1 assists per game in eight games in 2016 before she was waived by the team on June 20.[16]
