The differences are huge! It is difficult for the 76ers to satisfy him on both quotations for the backcourt star?

Basketball

According to the authoritative ESPN reporter Shams Charania, the Sixers have huge differences with the backcourt star Quentin Grimes, who is currently in restricted free agent form, in contract negotiations. The 76ers have submitted a formal and clear offer for the first time. Grimes will miss the team media day event this Friday US time and will not participate in this weekend's event with the team. The two sides are currently focusing on whether to sign a $8.7 million qualification offer, or other plans to sign first and then exchange, and may also discuss a one-year short-term contract with a higher amount. According to further reports from The Athletic Utah Jazz reporter Tony Jones, sources revealed that Grimes has received two offers from 76 people. Jones said: The first offer Grimes received was a qualifying offer contract worth $8.7 million for a year. The other is a one-year large contract, aiming to make Grimes give up the transaction veto that will automatically be included after accepting the qualification quote. Jones continued: According to league sources, the 76ers hope to reach a four-year long-term contract with Grimes, and Grimes himself is actually willing to accept such a long-term offer. The problem is the amount of salary and funds in this contract, and the two parties are still very different in this regard.

Grimes was born in May 2000 and is 25 years old, 193cm tall and weighs 95kg. He is a backcourt player from the University of Houston in the 2021 NBA Draft. In the middle of last season, the Sixers completed a deal with the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavericks sent Grimes to the 76ers and exchanged Cody Martin from the 76ers. In order to make this deal smoothly, the 76ers also sent the team's second round pick in 2030 to the Mavericks. After joining the 76ers, Grimes made a total of 28 appearances in the NBA regular season, averaging 33.7 minutes per game, averaging 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 2.9 turnovers and 2.1 fouls. He shot 46.9%, three-point shooting percentage 37.3%, and free throw shooting percentage 75.2%.

Grimes' performance after joining the 76ers last season is obvious to all. He was previously considered a reliable 3D type backcourt player with outstanding outside shooting and defensive abilities. However, after joining the 76ers, Grimes, who has taken on a lot of ball rights, showed his strong scoring ability. He also proved that he is an excellent scorer and can provide a lot of help and support to the team on the offensive end. Given Grimes' performance after joining the 76ers in the second half of last season, it is reasonable for him to get a generous offer. Next, we can also see when the two sides will reach an agreement.
