76ers' Quentin Grimes: Lives at charity stripe in win
Rotowire
Grimes logged 23 points (6-16 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 11-13 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 35 minutes during the 76ers' 139-129 win over the Grizzlies on Tuesday.
Grimes struggled from deep, but he was rewarded for his aggressiveness with a season-high 11 made free throws. He's scored at least 23 points in two of his last three outings, and the fifth-year pro should continue to operate in an expanded role due to the absences of Tyrese Maxey (finger), Joel Embiid (oblique) and Paul George (suspension).

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Team-high 17 points
Rotowire
Grimes chipped in 17 points (6-13 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 36 minutes during Monday's 115-101 loss to Cleveland.
Grimes led the 76ers with 17 points, playing at least 30 minutes for the third straight game. While it has been a disappointing campaign for Grimes, injuries to both Tyrese Maxey (finger) and VJ Edgecombe (back) could see Grimes playing a sizeable role for the foreseeable future. With another four games still to come this week, Grimes figures to be a popular short-term addition to just about any fantasy squad.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Drops 26 points Saturday
Rotowire
Grimes ended with 26 points (9-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-7 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 41 minutes during Saturday's 125-116 loss to Atlanta.
With VJ Edgecombe dealing with a lumbar contusion, Grimes is experiencing a surge in fantasy value. The 26 points were Grimes' most since the Nov. 30 defeat to the Hawks, and he's now posted at least 16 points in back-to-back games after being held to single digits in his prior three contests. Through 10 appearances as a starter in 2025-26, the 25-year-old swingman has averaged 12.8 points, 4.6 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.9 minutes per game.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Comes up clutch in fourth quarter
Rotowire
Grimes recorded 16 points (7-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 31 minutes during the 76ers' 106-102 win over the Jazz on Wednesday.
Despite missing all four of his three-point attempts, Grimes still finished Wednesday's game as the Sixers' third-leading scorer behind Tyrese Maxey (25 points) and Jabari Walker (22 points). Grimes found the ball in his hands down the stretch of the fourth quarter, and after tying the game at 102-102 with a driving layup, he gave the 76ers the lead for good by nailing two clutch free throws. It was an encouraging performance from the 2021 first-rounder after he failed to reach double-digit points in each of his three prior outings. Grimes has started in the 76ers' last two games but could revert to a bench role against the Hawks on Saturday if one or both of VJ Edgecombe (back) and Kelly Oubre (illness) are cleared to return.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Joining starting five
Rotowire
Grimes is starting Tuesday's game against the Spurs, Austin Krell of OnPattison.com reports.
Grimes will step into the starting lineup for Kelly Oubre, who is out Tuesday due to an illness. Grimes has seen substantial work off the bench of late, averaging 26.4 minutes in his last 10 appearances, and he could see an increase in his workload against San Antonio with Philly playing shorthanded.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Muted output in defeat
Rotowire
Grimes had five points (2-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and two assists over 27 minutes during Sunday's 114-98 loss to the Celtics.
After getting off to a hot start in 2025-26, Grimes is struggling to produce outside of the scoring department. Over his last six appearances, the swingman has averaged 12.2 points, 2.5 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 2.3 three-pointers in 26.1 minutes per game while shooting 42.4 percent from downtown.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Big offensive night
Rotowire
Grimes produced 19 points (7-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Sunday's 135-108 win over Minnesota.
Grimes reached the 19-point mark Sunday for the first time since New Year's Day. He sank five threes against Minnesota, tying his best performance from downtown this year. With Paul George serving a 25-game suspension, Philadelphia may need to depend on Grimes having more games like this going forward.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Leads second unit in return
Rotowire
Grimes (illness) tallied 14 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 29 minutes Thursday in the 76ers' 117-107 loss to the Hawks.
Grimes had missed the 76ers' final two games prior to the All-Star break while recovering from an illness, but he was able to reprise his normal role as the club's sixth man in its first game of the second half. The 25-year-old paced the second unit in scoring and made a rare contribution in the blocks category. With Paul George (suspension) out until March 25, Grimes should be able to maintain a 25-to-30-minute role off the bench, but fantasy managers in 12-team leagues or shallower should view him mainly as a streaming option for three-pointers and free-throw percentage rather than a must-roster player.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Won't play Wednesday
Rotowire
Grimes (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
Grimes will miss a second consecutive contest due to an illness, and he'll have until Feb. 19 against the Hawks to recover. With the 25-year-old guard unavailable, Kyle Lowry and Justin Edwards will likely continue to see an uptick in minutes, while Dalen Terry could enter the rotation.

Rotowire
Grimes (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
Grimes was out sick Monday against Portland, and the 25-year-old is at risk of missing a second straight game because of the illness. If he can't play Wednesday, Kyle Lowry could remain in the rotation and see a significant bump in playing time.

Rotowire
Grimes (illness) won't play Monday against the Trail Blazers, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Late addition to injury report
Rotowire
Grimes is questionable for Monday's game against Portland with an illness.
Grimes presumably woke up Monday morning under the weather, clouding his status against the Trail Blazers. If the swingman is unable to suit up, Trendon Watford should see enough playing time to warrant streaming consideration in shallow fantasy leagues and Justin Edwards in deeper formats.

Rotowire
Grimes (ankle) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Pelicans.
Grimes has missed two straight games due to a right ankle sprain but is likely to suit up Saturday. The 25-year-old guard has struggled with efficiency of late, averaging 8.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.7 assists while shooting 40.6 percent from the field and 22.9 percent from deep in 24.5 minutes per game across his last 10 appearances.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Won't play Tuesday
Rotowire
Grimes (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game versus the Bucks.
The 76ers are on the second leg of a back-to-back, so they'll take a cautious approach with Grimes' ankle and hold him out of Tuesday's game. His absence should open up some minutes for Jared McCain and Justin Edwards. Grimes' next chance to play will come Thursday versus Sacramento.

Rotowire
Grimes provided eight points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five rebounds and one steal in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 133-107 loss to the Cavaliers.
Grimes continues to struggle, having scored single digits in three of the past four games. Inconsistent minutes have subsequently impacted his ability to build any momentum on the offensive end, limiting his overall fantasy appeal. Over his past four games, Grimes has averaged just 8.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 three-pointers, leaving him outside the top 200 in standard leagues.

Rotowire

Despite coming off the bench regularly lately, Grimes should continue to play heavy minutes as long as both Trendon Watford (thigh) and Kelly Oubre (knee) remain sidelined. Over his last six outings, Grimes has averaged 11.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.2 steals in 33.0 minutes per game.
