MVP of the night
The Raptors are headed for direct playoff qualification, and along with the All-Star tandem of Barnes-Ingram, Immanuel Quickley plays the role of “unblocking complicated situations”. Like this night against the Wizards where the Raptors took the game from the wrong end.
In these cases, Immanuel Quickley brings speed and madness to the game, and above all efficiency: 27 points, 11 assists on 8-of-8 2-point shooting and 5-of-5 free throws. As long as he lost only one ball.
“Darko shook us at halftime. He didn’t even show us the video. He just tried to wake us up, he shouted at us a bit” he says about his coach’s banter. “He has different coaching styles, and we haven’t seen this one in a long time. But he was effective. He got us going again. The guys also motivated each other. It was great.”
But what makes the difference between the Raptors in the first half and those who came back after the break? “I think it’s mostly attention to detail. We came into the game a little slow, especially defensively, and that’s our identity. So we just wanted to get back to the way we’ve been playing.” he answers.
In the final quarter, Immanuel Quickley spent time breaking the lines, whether serving Scotty Barnes behind the defense or finding a scorer in the corners. Not forgetting the very complicated baskets, whether it’s landing a step backwards on your butt or laying in front of three wizards. Real lock, hard to keep.
In the end, the former 6th man of the Knicks signs his 6th double-double of the season. We note that in the last four matches he reached 20 points three times and that in this series he is averaging 24 points and 6 assists. Indeed, enough to become the most reliable lieutenant of the Barnes-Ingram tandem.
