Scottie Barnes on film of Raptors’ Game 1 loss vs. Cavaliers: ‘We needed to see that’

CLEVELAND — Immanuel Quickley will miss Game 2 of the Toronto Raptors’ playoff series against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Toronto’s go-to starting point guard also missed Game 1 with a mild strain of his right hamstring.

Cleveland leads the best-of-seven first-round series 1-0.

Quickley averaged 16.4 points and a team-best 5.9 assists over 70 games this past season.

Second-year guard Jamal Shead started in Quickley’s place.

Shead had 17 points and two assists in Saturday’s 126-113 loss, with all-star forward Scottie Barnes handling most of the playmaking with 21 points and seven assists.
