This offseason, Quentin Grimes and the Philadelphia 76ers were in a tense and uncertain situation. The issue arose when Grimes reportedly sought a contract worth $30 million annually. Eventually, the talks reached a resolution after Grimes agreed to his $8.7 million qualifying offer. With the deal settled, Grimes shifted his full focus toward proving his worth this season.

On Tuesday night, the Philadelphia 76ers defeated the Washington Wizards 139-134 in overtime. The game was tightly contested from start to finish, and both teams battled until the very last moments of regulation.

For Philly, it was Grimes who emerged as the hero, draining an insane game-tying jumper with 38.7 seconds left to send the game into overtime. His clutch shot gave the Sixers a huge momentum boost heading into the extra period.

Following Grimes’ shot, Joel Embiid couldn’t contain his excitement. The Sixers star was seen running back and forth on the court in pure joy. The victory marked Philadelphia’s fourth straight win.

Beyond his late-game heroics, Grimes turned in a stellar all-around performance. He finished with 23 points, seven rebounds, five stocks, and three assists, while shooting 7-of-17 from the field. Impressively, 19 of his 23 points came in the second half.

After the game, Grimes took to social media to express his excitement and appreciation for the big win.

“Vibes are immaculate,” Grimes wrote on X.

The 76ers fans need to be thrilled with how the team has been performing, especially considering that Joel Embiid is still being limited in minutes. Embiid played 25 minutes on Tuesday and scored 25 points, seven rebounds, and five assists.

The Sixers are now looking ahead to their next big test against the Boston Celtics on Friday.
