Quinton Hooker (born January 22, 1995) is an American professional basketball player who last played for SIG Strasbourg of the French LNB Pro A. At a height of 1.83 m (6 ft. 0 in.) tall, he plays at the point guard position.
He attended Park Center High School in his hometown of Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, earning Minnesota Mr. Basketball honors during his senior year after taking his team to the state title game. Nevertheless, he was lightly recruited out of high school and played college basketball at North Dakota from 2013 to 2017, where he was a two-time all-conference selection in the Big Sky during his decorated career. In his senior season he led the Fighting Hawks to a conference title and their first-ever NCAA Division I tournament appearance.
Undrafted out of college, Hooker embarked on an overseas career in Europe, signing his first professional contract with Polish club GTK Gliwice in the summer of 2017. He earned the starting point guard spot in his lone season with the club and noticeably recorded just the tenth triple-double in league history. After a season at French club Vichy-Clermont Métropole, he joined the reigning Hungarian champions Falco Szombathely in 2019, where he played continental basketball in the Basketball Champions League. The team sat atop the domestic league standings when the season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic and no champion was crowned. He joined German club Mitteldeutscher in 2020.
