Grimes posted six points (2-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt) and one block in 16 minutes during Sunday's 144-114 loss to the Knicks in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Following an impressive finish to 2024-25 with Philadelphia, Grimes ended up settling for a one-year deal with the 76ers for 2025-26 and turned in an up-and-down campaign. It remains to be seen if he'll command a multi-year deal ahead of 2026-27, whether it be with Philadelphia or elsewhere. Over 75 regular-season games, Grimes averaged 13.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 0.9 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes per tilt.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Quiet offensively once again
Rotowire
Grimes produced seven points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 108-102 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Grimes led the bench in minutes once again. However, he didn't do much with the opportunity, contributing only seven points. With a combined 12 points in the last two games, the 25-year-old will look to turn it around in Game 3 on Friday night. While Grimes can get hot from a production standpoint, his volatility on the scoring end doesn't make him an appealing option for fantasy managers, even with the potential for more offensive opportunities if Joel Embiid (hip, ankle) misses another game.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Quiet again offensively Saturday
Rotowire
Grimes produced three points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 26 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 win over the Celtics in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Grimes logged 26 minutes off the bench in this contest, more than the rest of the reserves combined. However, he scored only three points, his second-lowest mark of the postseason. The 25-year-old averaged 7.1 points, 3.4 rebound and 2.3 assists across 22.4 minutes in the series with the Celtics. While Grimes should continue to get plenty of work in the second round versus the Knicks, his lack of consistency on the scoring end is an issue for fantasy managers.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Pops for 18 points in victory
Rotowire
Grimes ended with 18 points (5-8 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one block over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 113-97 victory over Boston in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Grimes built on his previous effort, scoring 18 points Tuesday, the most he has scored thus far in the playoffs. After struggling in the opening three games, he has now notched a total of 30 points in his past two appearances, providing the 76ers with a much-needed offensive threat off the bench. He will look to continue on an upward trend when the two teams meet again in Game 6, this time on Philadelphia's home court.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Poor production continues
Rotowire
Grimes recorded two points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 15 minutes during Friday's 108-100 loss to the Celtics in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Grimes has chosen the worst time to go cold from the floor, having now scored a total of just 15 points during this series. During that three-game span, he has averaged just 5.0 points and 1.0 three-pointers in 20.1 minutes per contest. If Philadelphia hopes to force the series into a sixth or even seventh game, the team will likely need more from Grimes.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Modest production continues
Rotowire
Grimes logged six points (2-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 21 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 victory over the Celtics in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Grimes continues to be more of a passenger than a valuable contributor, scoring no more than seven points for the sixth time in his past eight games. While this was an impressive road victory, Grimes may have to find something on the offensive end if Philadelphia hopes to push Boston all the way. The two teams will now head to Philadelphia for Game 3 on Friday.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Hits for 20 points from bench
Rotowire
Grimes ended with 20 points (7-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 126-106 win over Milwaukee.
With most of the first unit taking a seat in the second half, Grimes was able to take over the backcourt and show his stuff. Grimes would likely be a starter for most teams in the league, and he displayed his playmaking in 19 starting appearances this season. We may not see much from Grimes in Tuesday's Play-In Game against Orlando, but he'll provide solid second-unit support when needed. Grimes finishes the regular season with averages of 13.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 0.9 steals over 75 games played.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Pops for 20 off bench Thursday
Rotowire
Grimes supplied 20 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds and one steal over 26 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 113-102 loss to Houston.
It's the first time since March 21 that the fifth-year guard has scored at least 20 points. Grimes has returned to the second unit with Tyrese Maxey back in action, and over the last seven games off the bench, he's averaging just 9.4 points, 3.0 boards, 1.4 assists and 1.1 threes in 25.0 minutes.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Serviceable effort Monday
Rotowire
Grimes contributed 11 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 32 minutes during Monday's 119-109 loss to the Heat.
Grimes logged 32 minutes in the loss, continuing to play a meaningful role despite the fact that Philadelphia is running with a relatively injury-free rotation. While it does appear as though he could flirt with 28 minutes per game moving forward, his fantasy value is likely to be limited to streaming, as opposed to being a must-roster player.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Not starting Saturday
Rotowire
Grimes won't start Saturday's game against the Hornets, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.
With Tyrese Maxey (finger) back in the lineup following a 10-game absence, Grimes will retreat to the second unit. Over six appearances off the bench since the All-Star break, the 25-year-old guard has averaged 12.2 points, 2.5 assists and 2.2 rebounds across 26.3 minutes per tilt.
76ers' Quentin Grimes: Displays defensive chops in win
Rotowire
Grimes logged 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, five assists, three steals and three blocks over 31 minutes during the 76ers' 157-137 win over the Bulls on Wednesday.
Grimes filled up the box score in Wednesday's blowout win, especially on the defensive end of the floor, where he set a season high with six combined steals and blocks. He took a bit of a step back offensively, scoring less than 15 points for just the third time in his last 10 outings, but that was to be expected due to the returns of both Joel Embiid (oblique) and Paul George (suspension). Even as the fourth option, Grimes demonstrated his value to the Sixers on both ends of the floor as the team looks to improve its standing ahead of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Will play Wednesday
Rotowire
Grimes (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
An illness prevented Grimes from playing against the Thunder on Monday. The fifth-year pro has recovered enough to return Wednesday, and while he's started in each of his last 11 outings, it's unclear what his role will look like moving forward due to the return of Paul George from a 25-game suspension.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Questionable with illness
Rotowire
Grimes is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls with an illness.
After missing Monday's loss to the Thunder, Grimes is looking to keep his absence to a one-game minimum. The swingman was already slated for a diminished role, with Paul George returning from a suspension Wednesday, but Justin Edwards and Trendon Watford could still see more playing time if Grimes is ruled out.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Out Monday
Rotowire
Grimes (illness) won't play Monday against Oklahoma City, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Grimes was added to the injury report as questionable earlier in the day due to an illness, and the Sixers have since determined that he won't go Monday evening. His absence will open up more opportunities in the backcourt for MarJon Beauchamp and Cameron Payne.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Questionable for Monday
Rotowire
Grimes (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Thunder.
Grimes was a very late addition to the injury report. He's been pulling a lot of weight for the 76ers lately with 33.9 minutes per game over his last eight contests. If he's sidelined, MarJon Beauchamp and Jabari Walker would be candidates for increased roles.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Leads Philly in scoring
Rotowire
Grimes closed with 25 points (9-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds and four assists across 36 minutes during Saturday's 126-116 victory over the Jazz.
Grimes has embraced the role of being one of the 76ers' primary offensive weapons alongside VJ Edgecombe due to the absence of star players like Tyrese Maxey (finger), Joel Embiid (oblique) and Paul George (suspension). The numbers back Grimes, as he has scored at least 25 points in four of his last five appearances. Since moving to the starting lineup on March 3, Grimes is averaging 20.1 points per game, and he should continue to handle a sizable workload on offense as long as the aforementioned star trio remains out.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Hits for 27 in Sacramento
Rotowire
Grimes logged 27 points (10-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds and seven assists across 32 minutes during Thursday's 139-118 victory over the Kings.
The fifth-year guard continues to shine for the injury-depleted 76ers. Grimes has started 10 straight games and scored in double digits in nine straight, averaging 21.6 points, 4.4 boards, 3.2 assists, 1.3 threes and 1.0 steals in 34.1 minutes over that latter stretch.
