Signed to an Exhibit 10 contract, Olivari seized his moment when the Lakers needed it most.<\/p><p>With Los Angeles trailing by 15 points early in the fourth quarter, it looked like another loss was inevitable. Down 89-74 with under nine minutes to play, the team was searching for a spark&mdash;and Olivari delivered. <\/p><p>He jump started a massive 20-0 run with relentless defense, aggressive rebounding, and quick transitions that helped the Lakers flip the script.<\/p><p>In just nine minutes of play, Olivari put up an impressive 11 points, hitting 4 of 6 from the field and 3 of 4 from deep, while adding five rebounds and two assists. His burst of energy helped Los Angeles hold off Milwaukee to secure a 107-102 comeback victory, marking their first preseason win.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Lakers undrafted player Quincy Olivari gets put into the 4th quarter by JJ Redick &amp; man did he take advantage of the minutes given to him.<br><br>Not only was he hitting crucial buckets, but he was being a pest picking up full court, loved the hustle and easily won MVP for tonight. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/XOPQqz0EJm\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/XOPQqz0EJm<\/a><\/p>&mdash; LakeShow Highlights (@LSH_lakeshow) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LSH_lakeshow\/status\/1844574525629006211?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>October 11, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>After the game, head coach JJ Redick couldn&rsquo;t hide his admiration for Olivari. <\/p><p><em>&ldquo;Quincy completely changed the game.

His senior year made him a standout, known for his scoring ability and intensity on both ends of the floor.<\/p><p>Yet, Olivari&rsquo;s path with the Lakers is anything but assured. The young guard has to fight for every opportunity, battling a crowded backcourt and high expectations in Los Angeles. His Exhibit 10 contract represents a shot to prove his worth, but roster spots are limited.<\/p><p>Still, if Olivari&rsquo;s preseason performance is any indication, he&rsquo;s up to the challenge.
