On Sunday, Immanuel Quickley produced 17 points and a career-high eight assists to power the New York Knicks to a 105-75 victory on the road over the Boston Celtics.
The performance by Quickley was his third consecutive game with at least 17 points after scoring 19 points and a career-high 23 points in the Knicks’ previous two games. He has emerged as a dynamic scorer off the bench to this point of the season and has made a strong case to be moved into the starting lineup.
One element of his offensive arsenal that has been on display has been his floater package. Quickley has developed the ability to hit floaters this season, and there are plenty of clips to show it, courtesy of Rob Perez aka @WorldWideWob on Twitter.
Knicks fans already know, but Rookie Immanuel Quickley might have one of the deadliest running floater games in the entire NBA.
To prove it, I went through all 18 box scores to create this 2:30 supercut of every floater he's made this season.

Quickley recently went through a four-game shooting slump, but has since bounced back and has been on fire from the field. He has played an integral role off the bench for the Knicks and figures to be a crucial piece to the team’s success this season.
Certainly, the floaters add a fun element to his game…
