Immanuel Quickley got a lot of hype in his rookie year.
His turnaround from a sophomore-jinxed start to this second-year revival as a point guard hasn’t been glamorized because of the Knicks’ losing season.
Quickley drove down the right of the lane, jumped in the air and fired a perfect bullet pass to Burks in the left corner. Burks drilled the catch-and-shoot 3 for a four-point game-breaking lead. On the ensuing possession, Quickley drew a charge on Bulls star DeMar DeRozan to end matters and give the Knicks their fourth straight win.Quickley appeared on the MSG Networks’ postgame show but wasn’t asked specifically about the pass. Instead, he talked about his new comfort level running the point.
“That’s another opinion,’’ Quickley said. “You might say that it started slow for me. I know my shot wasn’t falling as much as I’m used to it, but I feel like I was playing good. I was making reads. I was playing defense.’’ In Tom Thibodeau’s estimation, drawing fouls was his calling card last season and that’s happening again since after the All-Star break.
