The only thing left to find out is if he’ll be spending more time in San Francisco or Santa Cruz in 2023-24.</p><p>Quinones has agreed to a <a href="https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1682435069435060227" rel="noopener">two-way deal</a> with the Warriors, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic and STADIUM, but will enter training camp in late September with the “strong opportunity” to earn a spot on the roster.</p><p>Quinones was arguably <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-potential-klay-thompson-backup-continues-strong-push-for-roster-spot-in-dubs-summer-league-win" rel="noopener">Golden State’s best player during Summer League action</a>, averaging 21.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists across seven games. He was red hot at the California Classic in Sacramento before cooling in Las Vegas, finishing at 42.6% from the field and 35.4% on nearly nine three-point attempts per game, many of which came off the dribble. Quinones flashed as a defender at times, too, his solid physical tools and dogged disposition bothering opposing ball handlers.</p><p>The 22-year-old also entered last year’s training camp on a two-way contract with the hope of winning a battle for Golden State’s final roster spot. Anthony Lamb and Ty Jerome left camp as the Warriors’ two-way players, though, and the team carried just 14 players on the full roster to save ownership millions in luxury tax payments—its same plan for 2023-24.</p><p>Quinones’ return leaves Golden State with a pair of two-way slots remaining, the result of the league’s new CBA making a third available to each team. He’ll be in competition for Golden State’s last roster spot with multiple veterans including <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-former-lottery-pick-run-alongside-stephen-curry-klay-thompson" rel="noopener">G League teammate Jerome Robinson</a>, who also participated in training camp with the Dubs last season.</p><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-rumors-rudy-gay-free-agency-lakers-warriors-mavs-pelicans-bulls" rel="noopener">Warriors reportedly have interest</a> in veteran forward Rudy Gay, whose size, positional versatility and high-level experience would be a snug fit for a roster already heavy on guards. With 13 players currently signed to guaranteed contracts, expectations to fill a 14th roster spot with the winner of a training camp competition would surely be scrapped if Gay signs in Golden State.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-3-biggest-things-dubs-learned-from-2023-nba-summer-league" rel="noopener">Quinones proved at Summer League</a> he has the two-way chops to earn a full-time NBA contract. If he isn’t granted one after training camp, don’t be surprised if injuries to the Warriors’ aging backcourts stars prompt his call-up from the G League during the regular season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
