Immanuel Quickley named SEC Player of the Week

As expected, Immanuel Quickley has been named SEC Player of the Week for his performances vs. LSU and Florida.

The sophomore guard scored 21 points vs. LSU and followed it up with a career-high 26 points in Saturday’s win vs. Florida, including 22 in the second half. In fact, during the second halves of last week’s wins, Quickley averaged 18.0 points per game and shot 75% from the field and 71.4% from 3-point range with five threes. Clutch doesn’t begin to cover it.

For the season, Quickley is averaging a team-high 15.7 points per game.
