The Golden State Warriors have withdrawn their qualifying offer to guard Quinn Cook, making him an unrestricted free agent, league sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania.
By extending the qualifying offer, the Warriors had maintained the right to match any offer sheet the 26-year-old signed with another team. Now, Cook is free to sign with any club.
With the move, Cook's $1.9-million cap hold is coming off the Warriors' books. However, since the team is already well over the salary cap for 2019-20, it does not free up any new cap space.
While logging over 14 minutes per game last season, Cook averaged 6.9 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.6 assists. He's a 41.8 percent 3-point shooter on 330 long-range attempts during his career.
