76ers' Quentin Grimes: Expected to play vs. Wizards
Rotowire
Grimes is probable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards with right calf soreness.
Grimes is expected to play Tuesday, though the 76ers are likely to check back with the swingman to see how he's feeling closer to Tuesday's tipoff. Grimes has averaged 17.0 points, 4.3 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 33.1 minutes per contest over 19 games this season.
Grimes recorded 28 points (8-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and two steals over 47 minutes during Sunday's 142-134 double-overtime loss to the Hawks.
Grimes went back to the bench after a three-game spell in the starting lineup due to the return of VJ Edgecombe (calf), but the former still produced stellar numbers in this double-overtime loss to Atlanta. This 28-point output was a season-high mark for Grimes, who has cleared the 20-point mark six times already this season, though none as a starter. Regardless of his role going forward, he should continue to be a reliable source of scoring.
