Selected at No. 52 overall in the 2024 NBA Draft, few expected Quinten Post to make much of an impact during his rookie season. He was more likely to be competing for a roster spot than minutes on a team that had its eye on maximizing the remainder of Stephen Curry's prime.
As fate would have it, Post has emerged as one of the most important players on the current roster—a distinction that doesn't necessarily need to change if the Warriors sign Al Horford.
Golden State has been linked to Horford throughout the 2025 offseason, but the Jonathan Kuminga stalemate has pressed pause on any potential negotiations.
