Quinten Post Plays Only Nine Minutes on Tuesday
In a recent game against the Los Angeles Lakers, Quinten Post played a mere nine minutes, contributing two rebounds and one assist to the Golden State Warriors’ 119-109 victory. This performance has raised concerns about Post’s role in the team.
Limited Playing Time Raises Questions
Post’s brief appearance in the Warriors’ season opener has been described as “discouraging.” The team primarily utilized small-ball lineups, with Al Horford stepping in as the backup center for 20 minutes.
Al Horford’s Role and Minutes Management
Horford’s involvement is notable, as he is expected to have his minutes capped at around 20 per game. Additionally, he will likely miss some back-to-back games throughout the season. This situation indicates that Post’s court time may be limited, depending on various matchups.
- Quinten Post: 9 minutes, 2 rebounds, 1 assist
- Al Horford: 20 minutes, backup center
Future Implications for Quinten Post
While there may be games where Post receives increased playing time due to Horford’s limitations, his current role appears contingent on specific matchups. Observing how the Warriors manage their roster will be critical for Post’s development this season.
