With multiple players sidelined due to injury, Steve Kerr’s full rotation got playing time for the Golden State Warriors on Friday night against the Indiana Pacers.
For the third time this season, 2024 second-round pick Quinten Post made an appearance for the Warriors. Post played seven minutes against the Pacers, scoring six points on 2-of-4 shooting from the field. After scoring his first career points against the Cleveland Cavaliers at the end of December, Post buried his first career 3-pointer on Friday against the Pacers.
With 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Post pulled up from 28-feet to knock down his first career triple. After setting a screen for Dennis Schroder, the veteran point guard set Post up with a bounce pass before burying the open jumper.
