Golden State Warriors: Player grades for the month of October
By Tony Pesta
Last season, Quinn Cook had the best stretch of his career when he filled in for an injured Stephen Curry. During this 17 game period, Cook averaged 15.6 points and 4.2 assists per game on 50.5 percent shooting.
As for this season, Cook has seen his role returned to that of a bench player. However, he hasn’t disappeared. While he is only playing an average of 10.3 minutes a game, he is still making his presence felt. Cook has appeared in seven games and is averaging 4.9 points per contest.
His shooting has been relatively poor as he is connecting on just 33.3 percent of his 3-point attempts. If he can pick it up on the offensive end he will earn himself more minutes. For now, he has been playing below his capabilities.
