Grimes ended with nine points (3-5 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound and one steal across 12 minutes during Tuesday's 120-114 win over Minnesota. Grimes entered Tuesday's contest having missed his first three three-point attempts of the season. The 24-year-old has the upside to become a consistent shooter in the Mavericks' offense, but his role will be inconsistent if his shot isn't falling.

Grimes is in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Bucks. Grimes will get the nod in the starting lineup for the preseason finale as the Mavericks are tweaking their first unit once again. He'll play alongside Kyrie Irving in the backcourt.

Grimes finished with 20 points (7-11 FG, 3-7 3PT, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block in 22 minutes during Monday's preseason loss to the Clippers. Grimes led all scorers in the loss, continuing to make a case for meaningful minutes this season. Although he will come off the bench behind Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic, there could come a time when Grimes is actually competing with Klay Thompson for playing time. Grimes isn't worth drafting in standard formats at this stage, but he is someone to monitor early in the season, along with Jaden Hardy.

Grimes is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Jazz, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports. The Mavericks are starting Klay Thompson and Kyrie Irving for this preseason contest, so Grimes will operate off the bench. Given the starters will be restricted, Grimes should still play decent minutes.

Grimes (knee) said Tuesday that he is "definitely 100 percent" ahead of Dallas' training camp, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports. Due to a right knee sprain he suffered in January, Grimes played in only six games with Detroit after the Pistons acquired him via trade Feb. 8. The 24-year-old was a part of another deal this offseason, as he was sent to Mavericks in exchange for Tim Hardaway. Grimes appeared in 51 regular-season games last season with the Knicks and Pistons, averaging 7.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 20.1 minutes.
