with the Lakers last summer after Golden State rescinded a qualifying offer and he became a free agent. He essentially has the same role as he did with the Warriors of backup to the backup point guard. At Golden State, it meant a lot of waiting and cheering for Stephen Curry and Shaun Livingston.
“Just staying ready, being a professional, just being consumed with winning. Staying in the gym,” said Cook, who is averaging 5.7 points per game in 27 appearances off the bench. “You never know in this league.
