On May 18, Lakers' former player Quincy Olivari officially obtained his master's degree. It is reported that he returned to Xavier University after his rookie season to pursue his master's degree. At the graduation ceremony, Olivari tore open his master's suit and showed off the Lakers No. 41 jersey he had worn.

23-year-old Olivari lost the draft in 2024. After the undraft, the Lakers gave him a chance and represented the Lakers in 4 preseason games - playing well in the Lakers' reversal of the Bucks. Olivari made a great contribution in 9 minutes of the final quarter with 11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists; in the Lakers' preseason ended and lost to the Warriors, Olivari started in 39 minutes and scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists. After the game, he took a photo with his idol Curry.

In December last year, Olivari signed with the Curry brand, and he became the second NBA player to sign with the Under Armour Curry brand series since Fox. It is obvious that Curry and his brand are optimistic about Olivari's potential.

Now Olivari has successfully obtained a master's degree and has added another honor to his resume; in the 2024-25 season, Olivari played only 2 regular season games for the Lakers, averaging 1.5 points and 0.5 assists per game in 5 minutes. He spent most of his time playing in the G League. This season, he played for the Nanwan Lakers, averaging 17.5 points, 5 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game in 34 minutes.

Continue to cheer, hoping that the 23-year-old Olivari can return to the NBA stage in the future! ! !
