The Philadelphia 76ers are looking to re-sign Quentin Grimes, who is entering restricted free agency after a successful stint with the team. Grimes, who averaged 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.5 assists last season, is reportedly asking for a hefty $25 million per season. While the 76ers value his scoring ability, they also selected shooting guard VJ Edgecombe in the 2025 draft, raising concerns about a potential logjam in the backcourt.

Grimes’ previous contract was a four-year deal worth $11 million. The team's decision to engage with his camp reflects their desire to retain his talents, especially considering his impact during the injuries to key players like Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. However, the financial implications of his asking price pose a challenge as the 76ers evaluate their roster and salary cap going forward.
