Philadelphia 76ers DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Quentin Grimes will be a restricted free agent this offseason. However, it appears he wants to stay in Philly. "I'm very comfortable here," said Maxey while speaking after Sunday's 122-102 loss to the Chicago Bulls. "I could definitely see myself being here in the future." Still, Grimes understands the "NBA is a business," meaning anything can happen. The 76ers were ravaged by ailments throughout the 2024-25 campaign, with Joel Embiid (knee), Tyrese Maxey (finger), Paul George (knee, adductor), and Kelly Oubre Jr. all sustaining season-ending injuries. Fortunately, Grimes, who was acquired from the Dallas Mavericks ahead of the trade deadline, stepped up by averaging a career-high 22.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.6 steals in 27 appearances with the Sixers. There should be at least a handful of clubs around the National Basketball League who will be interested in his services. Yet, the 76ers will likely look to retain Grimes, although it's hard to imagine he'll be as productive in 2025-26 if Embiid, George, and Maxey are healthy.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (finger) is "progressing well." However, the 24-year-old indicated he'll need "about another month" before resuming basketball drills. He had a quality 2024-25 campaign, averaging a career-high 26.3 points with 6.1 assists. His three-point shooting took a dip. Yet, Maxey made up for it by increasing his contributions on the defensive end by amassing nearly two steals per contest. Unfortunately, he was limited to 52 games, mostly due to a finger injury that prematurely ended his season in March. Without question, Maxey is one of the best players in the NBA. But it remains to be seen if he can stay as productive and involved offensively if Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (adductor, knee) can collectively remain on the floor.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Quentin Grimes (shoulder) won't suit up for Friday's meeting with the Atlanta Hawks. He had 17 points, 11 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block in Wednesday's win over the Washington Wizards. However, he will miss this one because of a sprained right shoulder. As a result, Adem Bona, Lonnie Walker IV, Jared Butler, and Jeff Dowtin Jr. should each see more offensive opportunities.
