It was a special night at Chase Center on Saturday as former San Quentin State Prison inmate Aaron “Showtime” Taylor showcased his talents behind the mic, serving as a guest PA announcer for the Warriors' home game against the Rockets.
Eight years ago, the Warriors organization discovered Taylor during one of their annual trips to San Quentin State Prison, where team executives would play basketball and connect with inmates. During a trip, Warriors Director of Team Development Kent Lacob met Taylor doing play-by-play in the yard and took notice of his talent.
After his release from San Quentin, Taylor received a special opportunity to live out his dreams serving as a guest PA announcer for the Golden State Warriors.
