The Philadelphia 76ers are limping toward the finish line of a lost season, but Quentin Grimes continues to emerge as a bright spot. With key players like Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George all sidelined, Grimes has taken over as the team’s No. 1 option — and delivered consistently.
The Sixers visit the Miami Heat on Monday looking to snap an 11-game losing streak. Grimes has scored at least 22 points in 12 of his last 13 appearances, including a 28-point performance Saturday against Minnesota that featured 17 points in the fourth quarter. As Philadelphia plays out the final four games of the season, the team will continue leaning heavily on Grimes’ creation and shot-making.
Here is the featured Quentin Grimes prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Monday’s matchup against the Heat:
Best Quentin Grimes Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Over 31.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-120)
Grimes has averaged 26.5 points, 5.1 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 17 games since March 1, giving him a combined average of 36.1 PRA. He’s reached a new level since being traded by the Dallas Mavericks and has never looked back. Since joining Philadelphia, he has produced five games with at least 30 points and two scoring 40 or more. Before the move, he had only two 30-point games.
Though the Heat held Grimes to just 15 points in their last meeting on March 20, he enters Monday’s rematch in far better rhythm. The 24-year-old guard has fully embraced the lead role and has consistently delivered efficient, high-usage outings.
“His consistency. His ability to score. His professionalism,” teammate Lonnie Walker IV said. “He’s treating the game like a pro. I think his work ethic and his scalability is starting to show on the court more consistently.”
Guerschon Yabusele echoed Walker’s sentiment, describing Grimes as “really fearless.” Philadelphia has counted on him significantly to set the tone offensively, even at a time when maximizing draft odds is ideal.
“He’s really fearless,” Yabusele said. “He’s really giving it out there. Hits tough shots. His ability to create his own shot and be able to score when it’s really contested has been amazing.”
With Philadelphia shorthanded and focused on internal development, expect another high-usage night from Grimes. The opportunity and volume are there, and his confidence grows with each game. This line has a strong chance to clear once again.
