Knicks' Immanuel Quickley Had NBA Twitter Going Crazy For His Move Against The 76ers
Immanuel Quickley has everybody talking on Twitter on Tuesday evening, because of his sensational move in the game between the Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden.
The clip of the move that Quickely made can be seen in a tweet that is embedded below from Rob Perez.
Quickley had a beautiful crossover and Tyrese Maxey fell to the ground.
Quickley then drilled the shot.
Now, some will say that Maxey tripped over the screen being set by Mitchell Robinson.
The highlight can be interpreted both ways, but at the end of the day the move by the second-year point guard created a highlight that got the crowd going and the fans on Twitter talking.
After being drafted 25th overall in the 2020 NBA Draft, Quickley was one of the better rookies in his class last season.
He averaged 11.2 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game on a Knicks team that was 41-31 and got the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs.
The Knicks beat the 76ers 112-99.
