Raptors Lose Quickley, Stakes High in Game Four
Description
Toronto Raptors Point Guard Immanuel Quickley Out for Playoff Series; Team Turns to Rookies for Support
The Toronto Raptors have suffered a significant blow as point guard Immanuel Quickley has been ruled out for the rest of their first-round playoff series against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to a re-aggravated hamstring injury. Quickley, who played in seventy games this season, averaged 16.4 points and 5.9 assists per game, leading the team in three-point attempts at 37%. His absence will be felt, as he opened the floor for his teammates with his shot-making.
The Raptors have turned to rookies Jamal Shead and Ja’Kobe Walter in the starting lineup, with Collin Murray-Boyles stepping up big in Game three with 22 points off the bench. The team will need a must-win performance in Game four to even the series, as Quickleys absence raises the stakes.
