Remember when everyone thought Stephen Curry’s Warriors and LeBron James would compete in the finals every year? At the same time, do you remember a 6’ft guard playing an important role in the Championship team of 2018 alongside Curry? Many also remember the same guard for playing an equally important role in the championship team of 2020 alongside ‘the King’. Yes, we’re talking about the #4 Quinn Cook.
