This promising young guard won championships with the Warriors and Lakers
In 2018, Quinn Cook was Steph Curry's official backup point guard on a championship-winning Golden State Warriors team. He had started in 18 games for the team that season and was a member of the roster from 2017-2019. The next season in 2019-2020, he won a championship with the Lakers, and two seasons later he was out of the league.
"One thing about me is I was always a great teammate, genuine, never really forced nothing off the court. I worked," Cook said. "I signed with Golden State, and I was a backup that year, obviously Steph went out - had a nice 30-game run. Won a chip. We get Boogie the next year, I was a backup that year, he tears his quad first round after coming off of Achilles. K {Kevin Durant] get hurt the next series, Klay gets hurt, we were a play away from going to Game 7...
"Go to LA, don't play," Cook said "I'm sitting behind LeBron, I'm sitting behind Rondo. I play in three straight Finals. I've never been on a guaranteed contract since, which is bullsh*t. But, at the end of the day, I had to go through those first non-guaranteed deals, or living out of my suit case for two years to get ready for that. At that point, I was just like, forget the NBA, I'm gonna go where I get the respect.
