New York Knicks fans, it’s looking like you all don’t have to worry too much about Immanuel Quickley leaving NYC ahead of the Feb. 9 trade deadline.

Although the Knicks were reportedly shopping the third-year guard a few weeks ago, The Athletic’s Mike Vorkunov (subscription required) wrote on Friday that according to one NBA executive, “he doesn’t believe Quickley is gettable in a trade anymore.” Quickley is averaging 12.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.2 assists while shooting 42.2% from the field and 32.9% from three.

In other news, today (Saturday, Jan. 21) is the last day for fans to cast their NBA All-Star votes. Julius Randle was No. 9 in the Eastern Conference frontcourt in the third and final fan returns, but Jalen Brunson’s name was still not listed. Fans make up 50% of the vote and media/players make up 25% each. This year’s All-Star starters will be announced on TNT on Jan. 26 and reserves will also be announced on TNT on Feb. 2.
