Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Kyle Brandon O'Quinn was born in Jamaica, New York, to Tommie and Regina O'Quinn. Kyle has an older sister, Rasheena Moss. He attended Holy Cross High School for his first two years of high school but did not ascend past the junior varsity team and played only limited minutes. O'Quinn then transferred to Math, Science Research & Technology High School at the Campus Magnet Complex in Queens, but he did not play basketball as a junior, instead choosing football. As a senior, he returned to hoops and posted per-game averages of 20 points, 12 rebounds, and three blocks per game. O'Quinn earned first-team All-Queens and third-team All-Public School Athletic League (PSAL) honors for his senior year. After reaching the NBA, O'Quinn became known in part for his bushy beard. In 2014, he shaved the beard in order to raise awareness for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Florida. Learn more about O'Quinn by following him on Twitter (@Kyle_OQuinn) and on Instagram (@kyle.oquinn). As a senior, O'Quinn had a golden moment in the 2012 NCAA Tournament, leading 15th-seeded Norfolk State over Missouri. The Spartan center put up 26 points and 14 rebounds to cap a successful career as a big fish in the MEAC pond. It all started in the 2008-09 season, when the 6-foot-10 center averaged 5.3 points and 3.4 rebounds off the bench. He started 29 games as a sophomore and provided 11.5 points per game on 54.9 percent from the field, along with a team-high 8.7 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks. O'Quinn had 19 double-doubles in his junior campaign and was top five in the country in rebounding (11.1) and blocks (3.4) per game, setting school records in both categories, and also averaged 16.4 points per game. O'Quinn also won the MEAC Defensive Player of the Year that year. O'Quinn then won the MEAC Player of the Year in his senior season after averaging 15.9 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.7 blocks. He had 20 double-doubles overall, including reaching that mark in six straight games at one point. O'Quinn was drafted in the second round of the 2012 NBA Draft by the Orlando Magic with the 49th overall pick.

Finds opportunity overseas
CFree Agent
January 20, 2021
O'Quinn signed a one-year contract Wednesday with Turkish club Fenerbahce Beko Istanbul, EuroLeague.net reports.
ANALYSIS
O'Quinn will head overseas after spending the last eight seasons in the NBA; he averaged 5.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.4 steals in 14.2 minutes per game over 472 appearances with the Magic, Knicks, Pacers and 76ers. The 30-year-old was unable to attract much interest from NBA teams in free agency this offseason, so he'll look to impress in Turkey with the hope of resurfacing stateside in 2021-22.

2012
O'Quinn joins the 76ers on a one-year deal after spending last season with the Pacers. In 45 appearances for Indiana, the big man averaged 3.5 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 8.6 minutes per contest. O'Quinn has been a low-usage backup for the majority of his seven-year career, with a career-high of 17.2 minutes per night back in 2013-14. His most productive season came in 2017 with the Knicks, when he averaged 7.1 points and 6.1 rebounds, so his ceiling is very low. O'Quinn will fight for reserve minutes at center with Jonah Bolden, though playing on a team loaded with talent (especially in the frontcourt), he'll have a tough time earning 15 minutes per night, making him avoidable in all but the deepest of fantasy basketball formats.
In his third year with the Knicks, O'Quinn continued to show some improvements with his overall game. He ended up posting career highs across the board with per game averages of 7.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.3 blocks across 18.0 minutes. He finished the season with eight double-doubles and was an especially important bench piece over the final few months after All-Star big man Kristaps Porzingis went down with a torn ACL. His fluctuating role kept him out of the season-long Fantasy league discussion for much of the year, but he was still a valuable DFS option when receiving an extended workload, as evidenced by his aforementioned double-double totals. As a result of his strong play, O'Quinn opted out of his $4.2 million player option with New York in an attempt to garner a pay raise. However, he ended up seeing just a very minor bump and now heads to Indiana on a one-year, $4.5 million deal. O'Quinn is expected to slot in as the team's third center behind Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis, helping refill the frontcourt depth Indiana lost following the departures of Al Jefferson and Trevor Booker. Considering his placement on the depth chart, O'Quinn will struggle to provide consistent value for Fantasy owners, but he'll always be a streaming option if he's set for an increased workload on any given day/week.
O'Quinn was once again a depth option for the Knicks in the frontcourt during the 2016-17 campaign. However, with fellow center Joakim Noah playing in just 46 games, that allowed O'Quinn to see a few added minutes here and there. After averaging 11.8 minutes in his first season with New York, O'Quinn saw his playing time jump up to 15.6, which in turn added to his averages elsewhere of 6.3 points, 5.5 assists, 1.5 assists and 1.3 blocks. That wasn't enough to put him on the radar in anything but the deepest of leagues as a rebound and block specialist. That's unlikely to change heading into the 2017-18 season. Noah is set to miss the first 12 games of the year on suspension, but once he's back, O'Quinn will likely fall to the team's third-string center. O'Quinn can also play power forward, but guys like Kristaps Prozingis, Lance Thomas and Michael Beasley are all options there, which doesn't translate to a quicker path to playing time. That means O'Quinn likely shouldn't see many more minutes than the 15.6 he posted last season, limiting his impact as a Fantasy option.
The sleeper acquisition of an admittedly unexciting Knicks summer haul, O'Quinn returns to his native New York having agreed to a four-year, $16 million deal. In 51 appearances for Orlando last year, O'Quinn averaged 5.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 0.8 blocks in 16 minutes per game. At 6-10, 250 pounds, O'Quinn is capable of playing power forward and center, where he figures to backup starter Robin Lopez for the Knicks. When given ample minutes, O'Quinn has flashed a decent all-around skill set that includes strong rim protection and rebounding efficiency. However, O'Quinn has also demonstrated intriguing court vision and a developing outside shooting touch. Combined, those traits seemingly make the 25-year-old an ideal fit for the Knicks' offensive scheme, which could make him a valuable frontcourt contributor at either starting power forward or backup center. While O'Quinn's previous production should rightfully draw skepticism over his fantasy stock, it appears his new situation could set him up for success and gradually make him relevant in more formats.
Kyle O'Quinn is entering his third season in the NBA. Last season, O'Quinn averaged 6.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.6 steals, and 1.3 blocks in 17 minutes per game through 69 games. The 24-year-old center shot 50 percent from the field on 5.4 attempts per game and 69 percent from the free-throw line on 2.5 attempts per game. What began as a lost season quickly turned into a contract-saving campaign, with O'Quinn becoming a staple in the starting lineup after the trade deadline, facilitated by the departure of Glen Davis and injury-absence of Nikola Vucevic. O'Quinn turned in career-highs across the board and led the Magic in blocks and defensive rating (101.8). His 88 total blocks left him tied for 24th in the league last season, and he held opponents to 46-percent shooting at the rim (8th best among 71 players with at least four opportunities per game and 60 games played). Offensively, O'Quinn owns an quality mid-range game (42 percent from the field on 177 attempts last season) and is an adept at passer for a center. Standing in his way are minute consumers Nikola Vucevic and Channing Frye.
O'Quinn should lead the also-ran forwards in playing time, as he performed better than expected last year, and was rewarded with a steadily increasing supply of minutes. He has limited skills as a shot-blocker or scorer, but is a surprisingly skilled as a passer – he averaged 3.8 assists per 48 minutes in March, and 4.6 per 48 minutes in April.
O’Quinn will get opportunities as the Magic look to expedite the youth movement. The second-round pick averaged 8.8 points and 6.2 rebounds in Summer League, and will get chances at the backup 5 role. He is undersized, but makes up for it with his hustle.
