Once again he performed well both offensively and defensively. It would be a huge mistake for the 76ers not to offer him a big contract.

Basketball

In the previous NBA regular season, the Philadelphia 76ers, playing at home, relied on Kelly Oubre Jr.'s tip-in to beat the Boston Celtics 102-100. After this game, the 76ers, who have won 2 of the last 3 games, have improved their record to 7 wins and 4 losses, and their ranking has risen to 6th in the Eastern Conference; while the Celtics, who have lost 2 of the last 3 games, have had a record of 5 wins and 7 losses, and their ranking has also dropped to 11th in the Eastern Conference.

In this game, the 76ers' substitute backcourt general Quentin Grimes performed quite well. Grimes played 27 minutes and 50 seconds, shooting 6 of 10 from the field, 3 of 6 from beyond the three-point line, and 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 18 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, and 1 block. He also had 4 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a plus-minus of 0. Grimes still played a very good role on both offense and defense in this game. He showed quite good scoring ability on the offensive end. He also has stable shooting ability. He also created a lot of threats to his opponents on the offensive end. Not only that, Grimes also played a very good role in passing and organizing. He is also the core figure in the team's second team. Grimes' performance on the defensive end is also quite outstanding, and he can also play a very good role on the defensive end. Grimes helped the team stabilize the situation, and he also made a huge contribution to the team's victory.

Grimes was born in May 2000. He is 25 years old, 193cm tall and 95kg in weight. He is a backcourt player from the University of Houston selected by the New York Knicks with the 25th overall pick in the first round of the 2021 NBA Draft. In the middle of last season, the 76ers completed a trade with the Dallas Mavericks and acquired Grimes. After joining the 76ers, Grimes played a total of 28 times in the NBA regular season last season, averaging 33.7 minutes per game. He averaged 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.5 steals, and 0.4 blocks per game. He also had 2.9 turnovers and 2.1 fouls. He shot 46.9% from the field, 37.3% from the three-point range, and 75.2% from the free throw line. Since the start of this season, Grimes has averaged 30.7 minutes per game in the first 11 games, averaging 17.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.5 blocks per game. He also has 3.3 turnovers and 2.6 fouls. His shooting percentage is 48%, 40.6% from three-point range, and 82.4% from free throws.

Grimes' performance this season is actually very outstanding. Although he had to return to the second team, his performance did not show any decline. He was still able to play a decisive role on both offense and defense. His scoring ability, shooting ability, organizational ability and defensive ability were all clearly reflected. Because of this, he can still get a lot of playing time and performance opportunities, and he has also shown his talents at critical moments many times. Grimes can perform like this, but the 76ers are unwilling to provide him with a reasonable offer. This is the 76ers' mistake. Letting go of players like Grimes next summer will definitely be a huge loss for the 76ers.
