Coachability is something that must be present in players looking to take their game to the next level. For the New York Knicks, rookie Immanuel Quickley is already taking to the new system Tom Thibodeau has deployed. With an aggressive defensive style, Quickley is still finding his sea legs in the NBA, but he’s already flashed signs of great offensive prowess.
The Knicks acquiring Derrick Rose was an interesting move, but his relationship with Thibodeau and some of the coaches on the roster make him a mentor and a situational player. At 32 years old, Rose‘s best days are behind him, but he can still make an impact by helping Quickley reach his potential.
