To get standard contract The Warriors will convert Quinones' two-way deal into a standard contract, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Impact Quinones was the 2023 Most Improved Player in the G League, and he's had another standout season with Santa Cruz. He's been more involved with Golden State in recent weeks, averaging 7.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 three-pointers in 19.6 minutes in February.

Steps up after Wiggins exits early Quinones scored a career-high 17 points (6-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and added five rebounds over 23 minutes in Saturday's 141-134 overtime loss to the Hawks.

Impact Quinones logged double-digit minutes off the bench for the third game in a row and ensured the Golden State offense didn't miss a beat even as Andrew Wiggins' night came to an early end due to an ankle injury. Though his emergence of late has resulted in point guard Cory Joseph falling out of the rotation over the past two games, Quinones has primarily been deployed on the wing for Golden State. Quinones will soon face at threat for minutes with Moses Moody (calf) nearing a return to the court, but a potential Wiggins absence could free up playing time for both young players.

Logs career-high 18 minutes Quinones contributed six points (2-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 18 minutes during Saturday's 129-118 loss to the Bucks.

Impact Quinones played just his 11th game of NBA basketball, scoring six points in a career-high 18 minutes. With the Warriors running a short-handed roster, Quinones was able to play meaningful minutes, arguably for the first time in his career. Of course, this should be viewed as an outlier when it comes to fantasy projections. Outside of dynasty formats, he has no sustainable value.

Plays four minutes off bench Quinones finished Thursday's 128-109 loss to the Thunder with zero points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt) across four minutes.

Impact Quinones hasn't been part of Golden State's rotation early in the year, as Thursday's matchup was the first time he had taken the floor since the start of November. The 23-year-old could continue to see a few minutes in blowout games but is unlikely to see much of a role for the parent club as long as the team stays relatively healthy.

Shines off bench Sunday Quinones accounted for 18 points (6-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists, a steal and a block across 24 minutes in Sunday's 121-115 preseason overtime win over the...

Impact Quinones is not expected to be a factor for the Warriors once the regular season rolls around, but the promising sharpshooter left his mark in this game, particularly when drilling a clutch three in overtime. He had scored just two points in two games this preseason, so there's a strong chance this was nothing more than an outlier instead of what to expect going forward.
