Emerging reports indicate that Quinten Post, a restricted free agent, has committed to a three-year, $30 million contract proposal from the Memphis Grizzlies. This development, as reported by ESPN, places the ball in the Golden State Warriors' court, who now have a tight deadline to decide on matching the substantial offer for their 26-year-old big man.
Post's performance in the previous 2025-26 season with the Warriors was notable, where he averaged 7.7 points and 4.0 rebounds per game. His offensive contributions included successfully landing 93 three-point shots across 67 appearances, 35 of which he started. Since being selected by Golden State in the second round (52nd overall) of the 2024 draft, the 7-footer has maintained averages of 7.8 points and 3.8 rebounds, demonstrating a respectable 36.4% accuracy from beyond the arc over 109 games, starting in 49 of those matchups.
This situation underscores the competitive nature of the NBA free agency market, where teams vie for talent. The Grizzlies' aggressive pursuit of Post highlights his perceived value and potential impact on their roster. For the Warriors, the decision to match or let go of Post will have implications for their future roster composition and financial strategy. It's a testament to Post's growing stature in the league, reflecting his consistent improvement and valuable skill set, particularly his shooting ability for a player of his size.
