Raptors, Immanuel Quickley Agree On Five-Year Deal
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley has agreed to sign a new contract that will keep him in Toronto for the next five years. According to Shams Charania, the deal is worth $175 million for five years. Quickley was a restricted free agent and would have hit the free agency market if they couldn't get a deal done by June 30. Instead, the 25-year-old will be sticking around after being traded to the Raptors in the deal that sent OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks. Through 38 games last season, the Kentucky product averaged 18.6 points, 6.8 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 2.8 threes, and 1.8 turnovers per game. This contract solidifies Quickley as a cornerstone piece to the team along with Scottie Barnes and RJ Barrett.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley, while speaking at his exit interview on Monday, expressed his desire to remain with the organization. The 24-year-old, who was traded to Toronto in the deal that sent OG Anunoby to the Knicks, averaged a career-high 18.6 points, 6.8 assists, and 4.8 rebounds in 38 games with the Raptors. But he will be a restricted free agent this offseason, so there should be interest from multiple clubs around the National Basketball Association. With that said, Quickley is figured to earn over $25 million on his next contract, although the Raptors will likely be more than happy to match any offers he'll garner as a restricted free agent.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (adductor) will not play in Sunday's contest versus the Miami Heat. He will be sidelined during the final regular season game because of a left adductor strain. With Toronto's season coming to a close, they will turn their attention to building a better roster for next season, which Quickley will likely be a major part of. The 24-year-old guard was traded from the New York Knicks to the Raptors in the middle of the season, and his production boomed. He shined as a starter, averaging more than 18 points and dishing out over six assists per game.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley won't play on Tuesday against Indiana. The 24-year-old has averaged a career-high 18.3 points in 36 games with the Raptors. But he's missed time due to injury, so he'll take the night off to rest. Without him on the floor, RJ Barrett and Gary Trent Jr. should lead the way on the scoring end. In addition, Gradey Dick (groin) and Kelly Olynyk could also see a substantial increase in fantasy production without Quickley in the mix.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (conditioning) and forward RJ Barrett (conditioning) are both available with minutes restrictions for Tuesday's tilt versus the Los Angeles Lakers. After multi-game absences due to personal reasons, Quickley and Barrett have worked their way back to Toronto's lineup. Quickley will end a six-game absence, while Barrett will return following eight games away from the Raptors. The former New York Knicks will enhance season-long fantasy rosters in the championship round, with Quickley averaging 20.3 points, 8.0 assists, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 3.1 three-pointers across 12 post-All-Star break games, and Barrett averaging 21.5 points, 5.1 dimes, 4.6 boards, and 2.1 treys on 53.1% shooting from deep since the break. IQ has the more favorable matchup of the two, as LA is surrendering the third-most FanDuel points to opposing point guards.
Immanuel Quickley, RJ Barrett Probable Against Lakers
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (conditioning) and forward RJ Barrett (conditioning) are both probable for Tuesday's contest versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Following multi-game absences due to personal reasons, Quickley and Barrett have been ramping up and seem to have worked their way back in terms of conditioning. IQ has missed six straight, while Barrett has been out for eight in a row. The former New York Knicks will bolster fantasy rosters contending for championships upon their returns, with Quickley averaging 20.3 points, 8.0 assists, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 3.1 threes across 12 post-All-Star break games, and Barrett averaging 21.5 points, 5.1 dimes, 4.6 boards, and 2.1 treys on 53.1% shooting from deep through this period. Quickley has the better matchup of the two, as LA is giving up the third-most FanDuel points to opposing point guards.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) won't play on Sunday against Philadelphia. The 24-year-old missed the Raptors' previous five games and recently started practicing with the team. However, he's not ready to return, although DFS participants could see him back on the floor for Tuesday's clash with the Los Angeles Lakers. In the meantime, Javon Freeman-Liberty, averaging 13.0 points and 4.3 rebounds in three starts this season, will remain a relevant fantasy option, especially if RJ Barrett (personal) isn't back in the lineup versus the 76ers.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) participated in practice on Tuesday, with head coach Darko Rajakovic deeming Quickley day-to-day as he ramps back up after being away from the team for Toronto's past four contests. The 24-year-old combo guard aims to return for Wednesday's tilt versus the New York Knicks, and the 23-49 Raptors will submit official injury designations later on Tuesday. Quickley was rolling before his absence began, averaging 20.3 points, 8.0 dimes, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 3.1 threes covering 12 post-All-Star break games. Bruce Brown and Javon Freeman-Liberty have split work in the starting backcourt in IQ's stead, but neither of the two have separated much in terms of becoming a worthwhile fantasy streamer.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) won't suit up for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has missed the last three games with a personal issue, so his next chance to return will be on Wednesday versus the visiting Knicks, his former team. In the meantime, Bruce Brown could see the most work at the one. Of course, with RJ Barrett (personal) still out, Gary Trent Jr., Gradey Dick, and Kelly Olynyk should remain the guys on the roster with the most fantasy potential.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) won't play on Saturday in Washington. He's dealing with a family matter, so he'll miss a third consecutive contest. Scottie Barnes (hand) and Kelly Olynyk (finger) have been sidelined. But with RJ Barrett (personal) also ruled out, Gary Trent Jr. (back), Kelly Olynyk, and Gradey Dick are the favorites to lead the way on the scoring end versus Washington. Bruce Brown is likely to remain starting at the one spot. However, he's not always the most dependable offensive option.
