The Warriors are picking their 2025/26 team option on big man Quinten Post, reports Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (via Twitter). The move ensures that Post’s $1.96MM salary for next season will be fully guaranteed.
Post was the 52nd overall pick of last year’s draft out of Boston College. The 25-year-old spent most of his rookie season on a two-way deal with Golden State, but was promoted to a two-year standard contract in February.
In 42 regular season games last season, including 14 starts, the Dutch center averaged 8.1 points and 3.5 rebounds in 16.3 minutes per contest. Notably, he shot a team-best 40.8% from three-point range, providing a different look in the front court as a stretch five.
While Post’s roster spot seems secure after having the option exercised, the Warriors could still undergo a number of changes this offseason, with eight more players who could become free agents. The only other team option decision still pending is forward Gui Santos, whose $2.2MM salary for next season is non-guaranteed.
Wait what…Quinten Post is 7 feet tall. Everyone on here says that Steve Kerr would never play a 7 footer. It is typo. He must a 6’0″ tall guard. That is the only type of player, according Davey J, that Kerr will play.
Now if he only knew he was 7’ tall ……
I actually like him. Looks like a guy who wants to work to get better. More rebounding would help.
Warriors still need a rim protector ……
So, he only counts if you say he counts. Otherwise, he is non-existent.
Trade fodder honestly. TJD, Post and Santos are absolutely going to have to be in a trade to help balance it.
