Immanuel Quickley can’t catch a break.
The Toronto Raptors lead guard will miss at least one week with a partial tear to the ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow, according to Sports Illustrated’s Aaron Rose:

Quickley suffered the injury during the fourth quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Quickley will reevaluated in a week.
It is an unfortunate setback for Quickley who just returned on Nov. 9 from a pelvic contusion that forced him to miss eight straight games following the Raptors season opener.
The Raptors will play in four games in the next week starting with the Milwaukee Bucks tonight, Detroit Pistons on Nov. 15, Boston Celtics on Nov. 16 and Indiana Pacers on Nov. 18.
With Quickley out, the Raptors will turn to Davion Mitchell with Jamal Shead backing him up.
The Raptors are currently dealing with a slew of injuries. They are without Scottie Barnes, Ja’Kobe Walter, Bruce Brown and Kelly Olynyk with no timetable set for any of them.
The Raptors have the worst record in the NBA at 2-9 and it is hard to see them winning their next couple of games, especially with Quickley and Barnes out.
