Without a doubt one of the best stories of the Los Angeles Lakers’ preseason was the rise of Quincy Olivari. The undrafted guard performed so well in the preseason that the Lakers had to keep him around on a two-way contract.
He notably went viral after getting emotional while discussing meeting his childhood hero, Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry for the first time, but as it turned out their connection didn’t stop there.
It was revealed that Olivari had signed a shoe deal with Curry’s Under Armour brand, making him only the second active player in the NBA to do so, joining Sacramento Kings All-Star guard De’Aaron Fox.
