Quickley sidelined for third straight game with Raptors down 2-0 to Cavs

TORONTO — Immanuel Quickley will miss his third game of the Toronto Raptors’ first-round playoff series with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Raptors starting point guard missed Game 3 on Thursday as he continued to recover from a strained right hamstring.

“Like with any of those types of injuries, there are certain benchmarks that he needs to hit to be available to come back and play,” said Toronto head coach Darko Rajakovic. “So far, he did not hit those benchmarks so for now he’s staying out.”

Cleveland leads the best-of-seven series 2-0.
