I'd prefer to keep the generation of new threads to a minimum so I'd appreciate it if the new thread is titled:

"When Does Quickley Get His First 40 Piece Bucket Meal and, also, Do You Think He's a Bust?"

They just let him dribble the length of the floor and lay it in without any resistance on that last score but at least he got it done to secure the 30 piece!

Its a great time to evaluate the media specialists in evaluating talent.

Wasserman Big Boards (July 2020). https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2897801-2020-nba-draft-big-board-updated-top-50-players

"46. Immanuel Quickley (Kentucky, SG, Sophomore)
Quickley shot 42.8 percent from three, 56.3 percent on dribble jumpers and 44.8 percent on runners. He's a shot-making specialist, but he's also 6'3" without any athletic traits, shot-creation skills or playmaking ability. "

NBA Rookie Power Rankings: Immanuel Quickley has big week for Knicks; Cole Anthony hits game-winner for Magic
Plenty of rookies taken after the first round, and even undrafted, continue to step up to big opportunities

As the NBA continues to feel the ramifications of COVID-19 outbreaks across the leagues, rookies continue to see rise in minutes while their teams are without key players. What's also been noticeable is just how wide open the Rookie of the Year race is going to be this season. There have been several first-year players who have surprised this season, including the No. 1 guy on the list this week: Immanuel Quickley.

It's a testament to a rookie class that wasn't ever considered one of the best, but early on this season we've gotten some great performances from guys that no one expected.

These rankings will reflect a rookie's performance on a week-to-week basis, not the collective season, so these aren't Rookie of the Year standings. With that straightened out, here is a look at the top rookies this week.

In New York's blowout win over the Boston Celtics, Quickly put up 17 points and eight assists off the bench, has has been incredibly efficient as a ball handler in the second unit for the Knicks. He's proven to be quite deadly out of the pick-and-roll, where he generates 1.189 points per possession, which ranks in the 93rd percentile in the league, per Synergy Sports Technology. He uses screens set by the likes of Nerlens Noel, Obi Toppin, Mitchell Robinson and Julius Randle to create space and pull up for a 3-pointer or get into the paint and nail a floater, which he's become quite good at.

For as good as he's been on the ball, though, he's not a great off-ball scorer. He certainly needs the ball in his hands to create, but he'll also need to improve his ability to contribute off the ball to elevate his game in this league.

I found jasmyn wimbish on twitter last week when quickley wasn't on it at all and was like hey can you include IQ, and now he's #1 on it. :lol:

Word. She also said Quickley has "become..quite good" with his floater. When he was like 90 percentile with it at Kentucky, an elite skill that has easily translated.

The Ringers Big Board about IQ: (https://nbadraft.theringer.com/)

39 -Elite shooter with a high basketball IQ, but lacks ideal passing skills for a guard his size.

SHADES OF: Ben Gordon, B.J. Armstrong, Jeff Hornacek
PLUSES
Knockdown shooter who hit 40 percent of his 3s and 90 percent of his free throws in two seasons at Kentucky. He has a lightning-quick release off the catch.

Excellent shooting off screens by creating separation through deceptive, change-of-pace moves.
Potent off the dribble. With a speedy first step, he’s easily able to create space for one- or two-dribble pull-up jumpers.
Team player who swings the ball. He’s not a primary ball handler, but he understands his role and plays it well.
Undersized, but has a 6-foot-10 wingspan that made him into an elite defender in college; in the NBA, he projects as a plus defender, at minimum.
Competes on both ends. He rebounds well for a smaller guy and he’ll battle against bigger players. He accepted his role at Kentucky and excelled.

MINUSES
Poor finisher at the rim; he lacks verticality, an off hand, and a sense for using touch.
Lacks playmaking chops; he’s a reactive passer, not a creator. And though he can handle, he’s not breaking down NBA defenders.
Despite his length, he still lacks pure size and strength, which will limit his versatility against bigger wings and as an impact off-ball defender.

Toppin could still work out but drafting Q 25 evens thing out.

When do you think Quickley gets his first 30 point game?
