Immanuel Quickley plays for the Toronto Raptors as the starting point guard. He is known for being a superfast ball-handler who can blow past defenders to score easy lay-ups. Quickley uses shifty maneuvers to wreak havoc on offense and his trademark floater shots keep defenders on their toes. Quickley was initially drafted by the Oklahoma City Thunder in 2020, but first, he was traded to the Timberwolves and then to the Knicks. After three and half solid seasons at Knicks as a back-up point guard, Quickley was traded to the Toronto Raptors in 2023 where he has become a starter and showing glimpses of star potential.
Before the NBA, Immanuel Quickley was a five-star sensation at John Carroll School in Maryland, and later he got an opportunity to play at the prestigious University of Kentucky for two seasons from 2018 to 2020. Since arriving at Raptors, Quickly has averaged 18.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 6.7 assists, and 0.9 steals, as of November 2024. Toronto Raptors sees Quickley as the future of the franchise, as they signed him to a five-year, $175 million blockbuster contract in the 2024 off-season.
