Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley is out for the remainder of the team’s first-round series against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The team said Friday that Quickley re-injured his right hamstring during rehab.
Quickley, who averaged 16.4 points and 5.9 assists in 70 starts this season, has missed three straight games, including Toronto’s 126-104 Game 3 win.
He scored at least 20 points in 20 games and recorded eight double-doubles.
After missing several late-season games because of plantar fasciitis in his right foot, Quickley injured his hamstring in Toronto’s regular-season finale against Brooklyn.
Second-year guard Ja’Kobe Walter started in Quickley’s place for Game 3. Jamal Shead had been in the lineup for the first two games of the series.
Cleveland holds a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series.
Game 4 is set for Sunday afternoon at Scotiabank Arena, with Game 5 scheduled for Wednesday in Cleveland.
