"In fact, it was the most efficient 40-point game in league history, which only adds to the astonishing nature of his career-best tying night. At night's end, Immanuel Quickley put up those aforementioned 40 points on a stellar 11-for-13 from the field, including 7-for-8 from three, and a perfect 11-for-11 on his free throws. Quickley also added 10 assists (making it a double-double), notched two rebounds, and secured two steals."
"Much of the prevailing Immanuel Quickley storyline in the 2025-26 campaign has revolved around his streaky shooting - or lack thereof - his questionable role as the Raptors' starting point guard, and the ongoing debate about his contract being a burdensome issue on Toronto's salary sheets. But the simple argument of just dumping IQ's contract or parting ways with him could be too narrow-minded for Raptors fans to settle on."
Immanuel Quickley produced a career-best-tying 40-point performance on January 20 versus the Warriors, shooting 11-for-13 from the field, 7-for-8 from three, and 11-for-11 on free throws. He also recorded 10 assists, two rebounds, and two steals, resulting in a 112.1 percent true shooting percentage — the highest for any 40-point game. Only Myles Turner (110.6% TS) and Klay Thompson (110% TS) rank close. The 2025-26 narrative around Quickley focuses on streaky shooting, his fit as Toronto's starting point guard, and contract concerns, while his locker-room presence and rapport with teammates and coach remain assets.
