Quentin Grimes and the 76ers remain at an impasse in contract negotiations, with the two parties reportedly „far apart” on terms. Despite his standout finish last season, as a restricted free agent, Grimes has limited leverage in talks. With no resolution in sight, Grimes will not join the 76ers for their preseason games in Abu Dhabi, though he can opt to sign a one-year qualifying offer by October 1, setting up potential unrestricted free agency next year.
