Michael Grange: Raptors 'hopeful' Immanuel Quickley (thumb) plays Friday

Toronto set to face the New York Knicks at Scotiabank Arena

New York Knicks visit Toronto Raptors, Quickley’s status up in the air

The Toronto Raptors are set to host the New York Knicks at Scotiabank Arena on Friday night, and there is some uncertainty surrounding the status of Immanuel Quickley.

Quickley is dealing with a thumb injury, and his availability for Friday’s game is up in the air. The Raptors are hopeful that he will be able to play, but they will make a decision closer to game time.

If Quickley is unable to play, it would be a big blow to the Knicks. He is one of their most important players, and he is averaging 11.2 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 3.0 assists per game this season.

The Raptors will be looking to snap a two-game losing streak when they face the Knicks. They are coming off a tough loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night.

The Knicks, meanwhile, are coming off a win over the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night. They are now 19-18 on the season, and they are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference.

The game between the Raptors and the Knicks is scheduled to tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday night.
