Quickley with tremendous defense on Murray on the final play, forces an off-balance three that falls short and Knicks win 2nd straight on this trip. – 12:29 AM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Knicks get two massive stops on Jamal Murray inside the final minute: one from Jericho Sims, who comes off the bench for a possession, gets switched onto Murray and deters a shot. And then one at the buzzer from Quickley, who did not relent one-on-one and forced an airball. – 12:28 AM

Unbelievable defense from Quickley. Knicks win. – 12:27 AM
Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Bones is just the next model of Quickley. – 11:53 PM

Terrible ending to the third quarter — Knicks holding for one and Quickley dribbles the clock out to a 24-second violation. Bones Hyland then rushes it up and buries a three at the buzzer to put Denver up 4. – 11:51 PM

Through one quarter, the Knicks lead the Nuggets 30-27.
• Randle 12 pts
• Rose, Toppin 5 pts each
• Quickley 4 rebs, 2 asts

Jalen Brunson took over the fourth after the Obi/Quickley duo got the team momentum to open the quarter. #Knicks were grinding and got a rare win in Utah. – 11:24 PM

Knicks Quickley getting out to a lead here in the fourth – 10:59 PM

Obi-Quickley duo is 6 for 9 from three so far in this game. #Knicks bench with 39 points to 44 by the Jazz bench. – 10:58 PM
Eric Walden @tribjazz
Simone Fontecchio flies in for a great offensive rebound, dishes to a driving Sexton … layup missed. On the other end, Quickley buries a 3, the Knicks have an 11-2 run, and the Jazz trail 94-89 with 9:21 to go. – 10:57 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
What a stretch from Quickley off the bench. – 10:57 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Quickley’s floater opens up the lob game so much. Really difficult to guard that play. Step up to contest a shot and it turns into an oop. Worry about Sims and he’s got a wide-open, bread-and-butter look. – 10:51 PM
Eric Walden @tribjazz
Quickley now with 3 fouls, and he heads to the bench – 9:53 PM
Eric Walden @tribjazz
The Untouchable Immanuel Quickley has tied a career-high in a regular season game with 3 steals. – 9:41 PM

More on this storyline

Ian Begley: Some teams have had cursory trade conversations w/members of NYK organization involving Derrick Rose, as The Athletic notes. As SNY reported last week, NYK has also gotten calls on Immanuel Quickley. In some talks, NYK has sought draft compensation as part of return, per sources -via Twitter @IanBegley / November 18, 2022
Led by Julius Randle’s best game of the season, and the defense standing tall with the game on the line, the Knicks rallied from 10 down in the fourth quarter to knock off the Nikola Jokic-less Nuggets, 106-103, on Wednesday night at a stunned Ball Arena for the franchise’s first win in Denver in 16 years. Randle’s free throw with 50.6 seconds left gave the Knicks the lead for good, and Immanuel Quickley played lock-down defense on Jamal Murray in the final seconds to preserve the win. “It’s us sticking together, staying together and believing,” said Randle, who like several other Knicks, played despite being under the weather. -via New York Post / November 17, 2022
But several teams have talked to the Knicks about a potential trade of Quickley. It’s logical to assume that the Knicks would be hesitant to move Quickley, a strong combo guard drafted by the club in 2020. But teams look at the Knicks roster and see a surplus of young players/potential rotation players. There aren’t enough minutes for everyone. So some teams feel that the Knicks will consider trading off at least one of the young players on their roster as the deadline approaches. -via SportsNet New York / November 12, 2022
