UK getting a new shooter: Quickley wins McDonald’s All-American three-point contest
UK basketball signee Immanuel Quickley shared top honors at the McDonald’s All-American three-point contest from the Powerade Jam Fest at Morehouse College on Monday night.
Quickley, who signed with Kentucky in November, made 14 of 25 three-point attempts in the contest, matching the score of Duke signee Cameron Reddish. The two five-star players were named co-champions of the annual event.
247Sports ranks Quickley as the No. 14 overall recruit and third-best point guard in the class of 2018.
Quickley is the third UK signee to win the McDonald’s three-point contest, joining Malik Monk in 2016 and Kyle Wiltjer in 2011.
