Knicks’ Immanuel Quickley under strong consideration for USA honor
NY Post
Knicks rookie guard Immanuel Quickley is under heavy consideration to be named to the USA Basketball Select Team, according to multiple sources. The Select Team will scrimmage against the Olympic team in Las Vegas.
Quickley, the former Kentucky guard who was selected last November at No. 25 overall, was one of the draft’s big surprises. He earned second-team all-rookie recognition as the top vote-getter on the second squad. The Select Team, made up of young American prospects, will practice with the Olympians before they head overseas. The Knicks consider those scrimmages terrific learning experiences. Tim Hardaway Jr. and Mitchell Robinson, then young Knicks, have been part of the team in the past.More Related News
