IntelliJ just inserts them automagically  no shortcut required   If the class name is ambiguous  it ll show me the list of possibilities to choose from   It reads my mind

User · Answer

Ctrl Space   Show Imports  This displays imports as you re typing a non-standard class name provided the proper references have been added to the project    This works on partial or complete class names as you are typing them or after the fact  Just place the cursor back on the class name with squigglies
