It was a somewhat strange rookie season for Lester Quinones, one that can largely define what being an undrafted player can entail. Having not been selected in last year’s draft, the 22-year-old signed a two-way contract with the Golden State Warriors before joining the team for Summer League.
Quinones was then part of training camp but lost his two-way deal, with the team preferring the slightly more experienced duo of Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome. The 6’4″ guard remained with the Warriors G League Affiliate in Santa Cruz, putting in some strong performances to earn another opportunity with the main squad.
