Immanuel Quickley's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Toronto Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic says that a bruised right thigh will keep guard Immanuel Quickley (thigh) out of Friday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers after missing Thursday's practice, but he'll travel on Toronto's six-game road trip that starts Sunday against the Atlanta Hawks. With IQ out for at least one game on Friday, look for Gary Trent Jr. and Scottie Barnes to handle the ball more in the first unit. Dennis Schroder and Bruce Brown are candidates to enter the Raptors' starting lineup against the Clippers.

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley produced a good all-around performance in his first game for the team on Monday, finishing a 124-121 home victory against Cleveland with 14 points, six rebounds, three assists, and two steals. He hit two shots from outside with five attempts, and Quickley was 5-for-12 overall from the field while having zero turnovers in 28 minutes. The 24-year-old, who finished second in the voting for the Sixth Man of the Year Award last season, started life in Canada as a starter, pushing Dennis Schroder to the bench. Schroder was still productive with a 12-point, eight-assist performance and actually logged a couple of extra minutes compared to Quickley, but early signs suggest that the two don't bother each other too much, and Quickley is a good fit on his new team.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett and guard Immanuel Quickley are both available to make their team debuts on Monday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Barrett and Quickley were both at morning shootaround, signaling they would be ready to rock. The former New York Knicks came over in Saturday's trade, and while it remains to be seen what type of role is initially in store for them, they should settle into very significant minutes north of the border before long. Barrett should eventually assimilate into OG Anunoby's role, which was good for 33.3 minutes per night before he was moved. Fantasy managers hope Barrett's play in his hometown of Toronto sparks greater offensive efficiency and defensive intensity. Quickley will have to battle with Dennis Schroder and Gary Trent Jr. for minutes, but he has a far greater chance to carve out a featured role than he did in the Big Apple behind All-Star Jalen Brunson.
