Quentin Grimes is yet to finalize a contract extension with the Philadelphia 76ers.<\/p>\n

After the shocking Luka Doncic<\/a> trade, the Dallas Mavericks<\/a> also parted ways with Quentin Grimes<\/a> and a 2025 second-round pick at the NBA Trade Deadline.<\/p>\n

The Mavs made the call<\/a> to acquire veteran forward Caleb Martin<\/a>. So far, the move has backfired for the Mavericks, as Grimes had a phenomenal run with the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a> late last season.<\/p>\n

As a result, most expected Grimes to re-sign with Philly this summer<\/a>, but so far, no deal has been finalized between the two sides.<\/p>\n

Grimes put himself on the map by averaging 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game for the 76ers in 28 matchups last season.<\/p>\n

Despite that stunning performance, Grimes remains to finalize a deal with the 76ers as he entered free agency as a restricted free agent.<\/p>\n

Amid those negotiations, the Utah Jazz<\/a> are reportedly a dark-horse destination for Grimes ahead of the 2025-26 NBA season.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs I talk with executives around the league, there\u2019s increasing curiosity about the Utah Jazz, a team with the flexibility to add talent,\u201d NBA insider Ary reported on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They added: \u201cOne name that continues to come up: Quentin Grimes. There\u2019s a sense that Utah could be a team to watch if the opportunity presents itself.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the Jazz already drafting Ace Bailey<\/a> during the 2025 NBA Draft<\/a>, adding Grimes to the core could be an excellent move.<\/p>\n

After all, it\u2019s about time the Jazz end their tanking and once again try to contend for a postseason spot in the Western Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What is Quentin Grimes\u2019 contract value?<\/p>\n

This offseason has been full of young stars waiting it out rather than accepting undervalued offers from their respective franchises.<\/p>\n

Be it Jonathan Kuminga and the Golden State Warriors<\/a> or Cam Thomas and the Brooklyn Nets<\/a>, these young stars want to earn a massive paycheck this summer.<\/p>\n

Grimes has also delayed signing a new contract with the 76ers, likely due to this reason. But how do NBA executives feel about Grimes\u2019 value in today\u2019s market?<\/p>\n

\u201cOne front-office staffer who is especially high on Grimes suggested a four-year, $75 million deal, the most total money and the highest average annual value ($18.8 million) anyone in the poll mentioned,\u201d The Athletic\u2019s Fred Katz reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s the opinion of one front-office executive, as Katz mentioned a majority of them agreed that Grimes is not worth more than $16.7 million annually.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quentin Grimes is yet to finalize a contract extension with the Philadelphia 76ers.
