Quincy Guerrier (born May 13, 1999) is a Canadian professional basketball player for Raptors 905 of the NBA G League. Guerrier played college basketball for the Illinois Fighting Illini, Oregon Ducks and Syracuse Orange.
Guerrier was born in Montreal and played soccer and street hockey before focusing on basketball.[1] He attended Thetford Academy in Thetford Mines, Quebec for five years, turning down offers from larger schools.[2] In 2018, Guerrier was named team most valuable player at the BioSteel All-Canadian Game.[3] He averaged 24.7 points and 6.2 rebounds per game in his final season with Thetford.[1] Guerrier competed for Brookwood Elite and CIA Bounce on the Amateur Athletic Union circuit. He committed to playing college basketball for Syracuse over offers from Illinois and Oregon.[4]
Guerrier was unable to enroll at Syracuse University in January 2019 because his academic records were not presented to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) in time. He joined the team in the following semester.[5] On February 11, 2020, Guerrier recorded a freshman season-high 16 points and 10 rebounds in a 79–74 loss to NC State.[6] As a freshman, he served as his team's sixth man, averaging 6.9 points and 5.3 rebounds per game.[7] Guerrier underwent surgery on June 2 to repair a torn muscle in his groin.[8] On December 21, he was named ACC Player of the Week after a 27-point, 11-rebound performance in an overtime win over Buffalo and an 18-point, 16-rebound effort against Northeastern.[9] [10] Guerrier averaged 13.7 points and 8.4 rebounds per game as a sophomore, and had four 20-point games and 8 double-doubles. He was named to the Third Team All-ACC.
On May 20, 2021, Guerrier announced that he would transfer to Oregon.[11]
After two seasons with the Ducks, Guerrier announced his transfer to the Illinois Fighting Illini for his fifth and final season.[12]
After going undrafted in the 2024 NBA draft, Guerrier joined the Toronto Raptors for the 2024 NBA Summer League.[13] On September 24, 2024, he signed with the team, but was waived the same day.[14] On October 28, he joined Raptors 905.[15]
Guerrier represented Canada at the 2016 FIBA Under-17 World Championship in Zaragoza. In four games, he averaged 5.5 points and two rebounds per game.[16]
