The 27-38 Knicks were getting 6.3 points in 17.4 minutes per game this season from rookie guard Quentin Grimes, and he could be back in action fairly soon. Via the New York Post:
The impressive rookie season for Quentin Grimes is not over.
And if there’s nothing else to take from this downbeat Knicks season, Grimes has flourished as a solid two-way shooting guard representing a piece for the future.
In the first game out of the All-Star break, on Feb. 25 versus Miami, Grimes’ knee buckled while he was moving through a screen, and was helped off by teammates.
No time table was set for his return after the Knicks announced a dislocated right knee, but Grimes is progressing quickly, is shooting and running, and likely will be cleared for his first contact practice Tuesday. Perhaps he will be back in 10 days or so.
