Mon May 26 | 19:41 | Quentin Grimes Not a Lock to Remain in Philadelphia |
According to ESPN's Kevin Pelton, the Philadelphia 76ers may have a tougher time retaining restricted free-agent guard/forward Quentin Grimes. Philly has the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, and the team is already operating at the luxury tax line. As a result, the front office may look to avoid entering the second apron, which would give Grimes the ability to search for a new team this offseason. The 25-year-old had the best stretch of his career in 28 games last season in Philadelphia, averaging 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.5 assists. However, he did all of that mostly while Tyrese Maxey (finger), Joel Embiid (knee), and Paul George (adductor, knee) were sidelined. Pelton added a few teams to watch that include Brooklyn and Charlotte, although the Nets are projected to have more spending power than other franchises around the National Basketball Association. With that in mind, Grimes is someone to monitor moving ahead. If he stays in Philadelphia, he'll have trouble being as productive, considering Maxey, George, and Embiid are expected to be back in the equation. But if Grimes heads to Brooklyn or Charlotte, he'll have a chance to earn consistent playing time, including carving out a spot in the starting lineup. |

Sun Apr 13 | 20:12 | Quentin Grimes "Comfortable" In Philadelphia |
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Quentin Grimes will be a restricted free agent this offseason. However, it appears he wants to stay in Philly. "I'm very comfortable here," said Maxey while speaking after Sunday's 122-102 loss to the Chicago Bulls. "I could definitely see myself being here in the future." Still, Grimes understands the "NBA is a business," meaning anything can happen. The 76ers were ravaged by ailments throughout the 2024-25 campaign, with Joel Embiid (knee), Tyrese Maxey (finger), Paul George (knee, adductor), and Kelly Oubre Jr. all sustaining season-ending injuries. Fortunately, Grimes, who was acquired from the Dallas Mavericks ahead of the trade deadline, stepped up by averaging a career-high 22.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.6 steals in 27 appearances with the Sixers. There should be at least a handful of clubs around the National Basketball League who will be interested in his services. Yet, the 76ers will likely look to retain Grimes, although it's hard to imagine he'll be as productive in 2025-26 if Embiid, George, and Maxey are healthy. |

Philadelphia 76ers guard Quentin Grimes (shoulder) won't suit up for Friday's meeting with the Atlanta Hawks. He had 17 points, 11 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block in Wednesday's win over the Washington Wizards. However, he will miss this one because of a sprained right shoulder. As a result, Adem Bona, Lonnie Walker IV, Jared Butler, and Jeff Dowtin Jr. should each see more offensive opportunities. |

Fri Apr 11 | 16:04 | Quentin Grimes Listed As Questionable On Friday |
Philadelphia 76ers guard Quentin Grimes (shoulder) received a questionable status ahead of Friday's tip-off with the Atlanta Hawks due to a shoulder sprain. Grimes has been a fantasy basketball hero in the playoffs, but the Sixers are actively trying to make sure they retain their first-round pick by finishing in the bottom six. That means they'll likely take the cautious route with Grimes, which makes Jeff Dowtin Jr., Jared Butler, and Lonnie Walker IV solid streaming options. Dowtin dropped 30 points, three assists, and four steals in their last game while Butler registered 13 points, six rebounds, and four assists. Walker even had 24 points, one assist, and one steal. |

Philadelphia 76ers guard Quentin Grimes (knee) was unable to return during Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Grimes was ruled out in the third quarter due to a knee injury. To be fair, the Sixers were already getting blown out, so there really was no incentive to put Grimes back out there. The injury is being called right knee soreness, so we'll see if Grimes is forced to miss any time. Lonnie Walker IV could take on a bigger role if Grimes does miss time. |

Dallas Mavericks guard Quentin Grimes (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Grimes is dealing with back spasms that will force him to miss just his third game this season. Grimes has been a decent contributor off the bench for Dallas, averaging 10.2 PPG and 4.0 RPG. With Dallas very short on depth at the guard position, expect Kyrie Irving and Spencer Dinwiddie to get extended minutes beyond their normal starter minutes today with both Jaden Hardy and Grimes unavailable off the bench. |

Wed Nov 27 2024 | 09:48 | Quentin Grimes Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday |
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Quentin Grimes (illness) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's clash with the Knicks. He's dealing with an illness and might be unavailable for a second consecutive game. Grimes has fallen sick at a bad time because he had just earned himself a larger role in the rotation, taking over Luka Doncic's (wrist) spot in the starting lineup. Grimes has contributed 10.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 3.3 assists in the first unit this season. Jaden Hardy will be in line for his second start of the campaign if Grimes isn't available against his former team. The expectations for Hardy will be high following his 23-point, three-steal effort in Monday's 129-119 victory over Atlanta. |

Fri Jun 28 2024 | 11:59 | Quentin Grimes Dealt To Dallas |
Detroit Pistons guard Quentin Grimes will be moved to his third team in the same calendar year. As reported by Adrian Wojnarowski, the Pistons have agreed to trade him to the Dallas Mavericks for Tim Hardaway Jr. and three second-round picks. Grimes was moved to the Pistons from the New York Knicks before the trade deadline this year in the same deal that sent Bojan Bogdanovic and Alec Burks to New York. Grimes is currently on an expiring deal, so it looks like the Mavericks made this move to shed salary, and it's unclear if Grimes will stay on the roster. This past season, he averaged 7.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game in 51 total appearances. |
