“Immanuel Quickley really had to play with a typo on his back”: NBA Twitter reacts as the Knicks misspell their guard’s name as “Qucikley” on his jersey vs the Pistons

Immanuel Quickley had to play with hilariously typo on his back, as the New York Knicks misspell the 2^nd year guard’s name as “Qucikley” on his jersey.

On Wednesday night, the Detroit Pistons hosted Julius Randle and his New York Knicks at the Little Caesars Arena. As expected, right from tip-off, it was Tom Thibodeau’s boys who were in the driving seat of the game.

A contest that witnessed only 4 lead changes and merely 1 tie, ended with NYK winning the low-scoring contest 94-85. It was a huge night for the Pistons’ duo of Saddiq Bey and Hamidou Diallo, combining for 63 points, 22 rebounds, and 7 assists while being responsible for 22 of the team’s 30 field goals. However, a stellar performance by the Knicks bench, led by Alec Burks’ 34-point outing, helped New York.

Burks received great help from 2^nd-year guard Immanuel Quickley. The 6-foot-3 player put up 18 points on a super-efficient +/- of +27. During the course of the game, Quickley even went viral on social media. But not for any particular play or achievement. The 22-year-old had to play in a jersey that had his name misspelled – “Qucikley”.

Here, have a look at it.

People joke the Knicks’ jersey stitchers should use autocorrect, but they sew those names in Immanuelly.
