To say that Quinten Post has been a nice surprise for the Golden State Warriors this season is disrespectful to the rookie center, and to surprises. He’s more than an unexpected quarter in the change return of a vending machine, or two curly fries mixed in with your regular fries, or an odor-free BART car. Post has a gorgeous three-point shot (41.7% on the season), a willingness to set hard screens, and passable team defense.
What he doesn’t have yet is an official nickname. There’s an obvious one that comes to mind, given his last name, but we think the Warriors’ new sweet-shooting big man can do better.
