Mavericks' Quentin Grimes: Delivers 10 points off bench
Rotowire
Grimes notched 10 points (3-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists and three steals over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 118-99 loss to the Nuggets.
The Mavericks struggled on offense throughout the game and Grimes was one of several players who couldn't find enough of a rhythm to make an impact. The fact that Grimes continues to play off the bench limits his upside considerably, though he's still scored in double digits in three of his last four outings with the second unit. The return of Kyrie Irving (back) also conspires against Grimes' outlook, though the latter should see consistent usage until Luka Doncic (calf) returns.

Mavericks' Quentin Grimes: Pops for team-high 26 against Cavs
Rotowire
Grimes produced 26 points (9-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Friday's 134-122 loss to the Cavaliers.
Making his second start in the last three games while Kyrie Irving has been battling an illness, Grimes led the Mavs in scoring with his best offensive performance since he dropped 28 points on the Blazers back on Dec. 1. The fourth-year guard has seen his court time and usage boosted with Luka Doncic (calf) sidelined, and Grimes has attempted double-digit shots in four straight games while averaging 17.3 points, 5.0 boards, 3.8 assists, 2.3 threes and 1.3 combined steals and blocks in 31.0 minutes per contest during that span. Doncic isn't expected back until sometime in February, making Grimes an intriguing fantasy option for the next month or more.

With Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Klay Thompson (illness) returning to the court, Grimes retreated to the bench Wednesday.

Mavericks' Quentin Grimes: Logs 24 minutes in loss
Rotowire
Grimes registered 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists and one block in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 105-99 loss to Minnesota.
Grimes saw an increase in playing time as a result of what could be a potentially serious calf injury to Luka Doncic. Grimes started the second half and could find himself playing a larger role should Doncic be sidelined moving forward. We have already seen Grimes step up this season when the roster is depleted. There is no reason to think he won't be able to increase his production should the opportunity present itself.
