Guard Lester Quinones of the Golden State Warriors has proven himself worthy of a position on the roster for the 2023–24 NBA season with his recent play.
The Warriors intend to convert the 23-year-old’s two-way contract to a full NBA contract when he has participated in 19 games this season, according to his representatives, LIFT Sports Management’s Mike Miller and Derek Malloy, as revealed by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Quinones has played 12.9 minutes per game and averaged 4.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.3 assists over those contests.
With the restriction on two-way players to a maximum of 50 games, the Warriors are showing their contentment with Quiñones’ performance and their wish to lock him down more permanently with the transition to a conventional contract.

Quinones’ signing secures the Warriors’ fourteenth guaranteed roster slot, indicating a diminished probability of the franchise further investigating the buyout market.
This implies Golden State hold onto their 15th roster space until the end of the regular season in order to allow flexibility for prospective signings in preparation for a postseason run. However, it does not rule out the possibility of Golden State adding another player.
Later that year, Quinones, who was not chosen in the 2022 NBA Draft, became a member of the Warriors. His switch to a normal contract after starting the season on a two-way contract highlights his importance to the team as a valuable bench player for head coach Steve Kerr, especially as the postseason draws near.
