Quentin Grimes’ career-high 13 assists redemption for blunder in Celtics loss
Last Friday, the Philadelphia 76ers failed to get a shot off in their final possession down just one point to the Boston Celtics with 3.5 seconds to play.

Grimes was reportedly asking for approximately $25 million per season in a multi-year deal on the restricted free agent […]

Are the Sixers… too good?
The 2024-25 Sixers didn’t win their fourth game of the season until after Thanksgiving. The 2025-26 Sixers won their fourth game of the season before Halloween.
