The Warriors have waived two-way player Daeqwon Plowden and signed second-round pick Quinten Post to a similar contract, Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype tweets.
Golden State was expected to open a two-way spot for Post. Pat Spencer and Reece Beekman hold the other two-way slots.
Moreover, the Hawks’ G League affiliate, the College Park Skyhawks, recently acquired Plowden’s returning player rights. That could signal that Atlanta has some interest in Plowden.
Plowden was signed to a two-way deal after strong Summer League performances. He averaged 14.6 points and shot 39.6% from 3-point range in eight Summer League games combined in Las Vegas and California for the Warriors.
Plowden, who went undrafted out of Bowling Green in 2022, has spent his first two professional seasons in the G League, playing for the Birmingham Squadron in 2022/23 and the Osceola Magic in ’23/24.
In 49 Showcase Cup and regular season outings for Osceola last season, he averaged 11.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.3 assists in 25.5 minutes per game, with a shooting line of .472/.397/.797.
As for Post, he spent his last three college seasons with Boston College. Post averaged 17.0 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists last season. The 24-year-old 7-footer was selected with the No. 52 overall pick.
