Lakers' Quentin Grimes: Eyes starting role
Quentin Grimes wants to establish himself as a starter during training camp, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.According to Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com, Grimes also said that he takes pride in his defense and will be ready to guard the opposing team's best player on a nightly basis, which should help him secure a regular starting role. Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves and Walker Kessler are all essentially locked in as starters to begin the season, though head coach JJ Redick will have training camp and the preseason to evaluate the final two spots. Grimes is coming off a productive 2025-26 season with Philadelphia, averaging 13.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 0.9 steals in 29.4 minutes per game across 75 regular-season outings (19 starts). He shot a career-low 33.4 percent from three-point range last season but is still a career 36.6 percent shooter from deep.

Lakers' Quentin Grimes: Expected to start
Quentin Grimes is viewed as a lock to occupy one of the Los Angeles Lakers' starting spots entering training camp, according to Jovan Buha of Buha's Block.Grimes is expected to join Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves and Walker Kessler as four established members of the starting five, leaving only one position unsettled. The offseason addition should complement Doncic and Reaves with his perimeter defense and ability to operate away from the ball, putting Grimes in line for a substantial role in his first season with Los Angeles.

Lakers' Quentin Grimes: Could play key role
Quentin Grimes figures to have an opportunity to fill the two-way role the Los Angeles Lakers need on the perimeter, with his defensive ability potentially being just as important as his production on the offensive end, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.Grimes is an athletic, aggressive guard capable of applying pressure at the point of attack, while his physicality and activity should give Los Angeles another option against opposing perimeter scorers. Grimes' willingness to attack offensively also adds another dimension beyond his spot-up shooting, though his overall impact could depend heavily on the makeup of the starting five.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Quiet offensively once again
Quentin Grimes produced seven points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 24 minutes during Wednesday's 108-102 loss to the Knicks in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.Grimes led the bench in minutes once again. However, he didn't do much with the opportunity, contributing only seven points. With a combined 12 points in the last two games, the 25-year-old will look to turn it around in Game 3 on Friday night. While Grimes can get hot from a production standpoint, his volatility on the scoring end doesn't make him an appealing option for fantasy managers, even with the potential for more offensive opportunities if Joel Embiid (hip, ankle) misses another game.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Quiet again offensively Saturday
Quentin Grimes produced three points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 26 minutes during Saturday's 109-100 win over the Celtics in Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.Grimes logged 26 minutes off the bench in this contest, more than the rest of the reserves combined. However, he scored only three points, his second-lowest mark of the postseason. The 25-year-old averaged 7.1 points, 3.4 rebound and 2.3 assists across 22.4 minutes in the series with the Celtics. While Grimes should continue to get plenty of work in the second round versus the Knicks, his lack of consistency on the scoring end is an issue for fantasy managers.

76ers' Quentin Grimes: Poor production continues
Quentin Grimes recorded two points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 15 minutes during Friday's 108-100 loss to the Celtics in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.Grimes has chosen the worst time to go cold from the floor, having now scored a total of just 15 points during this series. During that three-game span, he has averaged just 5.0 points and 1.0 three-pointers in 20.1 minutes per contest.

Quentin Grimes logged six points (2-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 21 minutes during Tuesday's 111-97 victory over the Celtics in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.Grimes continues to be more of a passenger than a valuable contributor, scoring no more than seven points for the sixth time in his past eight games.

The two teams will now head to Philadelphia for Game 3 on Friday.
