“Immanuel made shots,” Coach Cal said after the game. “Those were big shots for us. Big shots.”
One of those “big shots” came late in the second half of Saturday’s matchup against Vandy, when Quickley’s successful three-point bucket moved the Cats’ advantage up to five points (69-64). He’s bumped his scoring average up to 7.3 points per game, largely thanks to three consecutive performances, each one a bit stronger than the last: 8 points against Alabama, 10 points against Texas A&M and 12 points against Vanderbilt. Against the Commodores, Quickley finished 3-7 from the three-point line.
