Best Case / Worst Case: What will it take for Immanuel Quickley to really pop for the Raptors this year? w/ Katie Heindl

What are the best and worst-case scenarios for Toronto Raptors lead guard Immanuel Quickley in the 2024-25 NBA season? In Episode 1697, Sean Woodley and Katie Heindl (Basketball Feelings) chat about what needs to happen for Immanuel Quickley to have his best-case season in his first full year with the Raptors, where his three-point shooting and playmaking need to be as he settles into the lead guard role, and how the play of and fit with his teammates will inform his growth as a player in 2024-25. Next, they chat about the worst-case outcomes for Quickley this year. Will his rim pressure issues persist? Will his three-point shooting remain as voluminous and accurate as it was with the Raptors post-trade last season? And is there a chance his new $35-million/year contract starts to look like a major overpay by the time this season wraps? Lastly, Sean and Katie chat about what they think is actually the most likely outcome for Quickley this season, which to both of them is a lot closer to his best case scenario than his worst.
