It probably does, but not in a way that helps you to establish a case for free will.
If,
they have freedom,
and they are integral to the decision making process,
then what else would free will need?
In other words, what else would we need in order for you to accept free will?
A way for the freedom to flow through to the resultant decision.
The steering column in a car has, inevitably, a small amount of 'play'; the wheels can steer a minuscule amount independently of the input from the driver. This effect is too small for the car to be able to go anywhere other than where the steering wheel directs it.
You need to show that the quantum effect is not just present, but significant. But you can't. Because it isn't.
And even if you could, introducing randomness is not the same as introducing freedom.
Your position is so deeply flawed on so many counts that it is difficult to know where to start in refuting it. It shares this feature with most religious arguments.
